| Description |
Diplopia as a presenting feature of GCA is uncommon and reported to occur in 3-6% of all cases [1-3]. Clinicians often face an older patient presenting with acute or sub-acute onset of diplopia. Although GCA is an uncommon cause for double vision [3,5], many individuals obtain a GCA work up including laboratory evaluation to rule out GCA due to its potential for vision loss. This study will evaluate the differences in patients presenting diplopia, subsequently diagnosed with biopsy-proven giant cell arteritis with patients presenting diplopia from other causes. |
