There was a previous similar transient history of visual loss involving the right eye associated with a possible ill-defined cerebrovasculitis, which improved spontaneously. There also was a history of auditory difficulties. The vision at presentation was 1/200 OD, and 20/20 OS. Baseline kodachromes and a fluorescein angiogram are presented. With treatment and over a four month timeframe, the visual acuity improved to 20/25+ OD, while the left eye remained stable at 20/20.
