Surgical Outcomes of Transposition Surgery for the Correction of Large-Angle Strabismus
Background:
Many potential surgical options exist to address large-angle deviations and head turns that result from various forms of paralytic strabismus. Muscle transposition surgeries serve as suitable alternatives to simple resection–recessions. Here, we report outcomes of augmented Hummelsheim and X-type transpositions for the correction of large-angle strabismus and provide insights for surgical planning.
Methods:
We performed a retrospective chart review of 40 consecutive patients with strabismus who were treated with an augmented Hummelsheim or X-type transposition surgery at a single academic medical c...

Leukemic and Lymphomatous Optic Neuropathy: A Case Series
Conclusions:
Leukemic and lymphomatous optic neuropathy is difficult to diagnose and treat, and there is no gold standard for diagnosis or treatment in the current literature. We help clarify how this disease should be approached in a multidisciplinary fashion and on an individual basis to correctly diagnose and treat the vision loss, while considering the patient's long-term prognosis based on their systemic disease.

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody–Associated Optic Neuritis—A Review
Abstract:
Our understanding of demyelinating optic neuritis has substantially evolved over the past 2 decades. With advancements in serological testing, antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) have been recently discovered in a distinct subset of demyelinating neuroinflammatory disease. Although MOG-immunoglobulin G (IgG)–associated disorder (MOGAD) has previously been seen as a component of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), evidence increasingly suggests that it should be distinguished as a separate condition. The distinction of MOGAD from aquaporin-4 IgG NMOSD is imperative as tre...

Tonic Pupil Following COVID-19
Abstract:
A 37-year-old patient presented to our emergency department with sudden onset decreased vision with a history of being treated for COVID 19 3 weeks earlier. On examination, she was found to have a tonic right pupil, which was confirmed with a dilute pilocarpine test. As tonic pupils are known to be caused by neurotropic viruses and our current understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 is that it does affect the nervous system, we feel that the tonic pupil in our patient may be secondary to COVID 19.

Contained Rupture of a Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm in a Patient With a Third Nerve Palsy
We report one such example of a patient who developed new-onset severe headache and vomiting and did not seek medical attention because of COVID-19. Two months later, she was noted to have ptosis during a routine follow-up and was found to have a complete, pupil-involving third nerve palsy. Computed tomography angiography was performed and revealed an irregular bilobed saccular aneurysm (7 × 9 × 5 mm) of the right posterior communicating (PComm) artery, but no acute hemorrhage was visible on CT. On MRI, immediately adjacent to the aneurysm, there was a small subacute hematoma in the right medial temporal lobe with surrou...

Acute Complete Oculomotor Nerve Palsy in a Young Male Due to a Skull Base Myofibroma
Abstract:
A 25-year-old male patient visited the ophthalmology clinic because of upper eye lid ptosis in the right eye, binocular double vision, and light sensitivity. He was diagnosed with a complete third nerve palsy caused by a skull base myofibroma, a rare clinical entity that has not been described before in oculomotor nerve palsy.
