Description This 36-year-old woman presented in 1988 with 3 weeks of vertical binocular diplopia. She was a known amblyope OD. Her examination was notable for a right hyperdeviation of 1 PD present in right gaze and a subtle left noncongruous homonymous field defect. She was lost to follow-up, but 5 years later she re-presented with a loss of vision OS to hand motions, a subtle temporal depression, OD, and conjunctival nodules that, upon biopsy, showed noncaseating granulomas. Her motility was normal. The MRIs shown here were done at this time. With corticosteroid therapy, she recovered her acuity to 20/20 OS.
