Although cranial nerve involvement may occur, simultaneous facial and vestibulocochlear nerve dysfunction is rare and may lead to diagnostic confusion.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>A 42-year-old obese woman with metabolic comorbidities developed acute right-sided peripheral facial palsy preceded by facial pain and accompanied by severe headache, pulsatile tinnitus, and blurred vision. A 5-day course of oral prednisolone for presumed Bell's palsy yielded no improvement. Ophthalmologic referral on Day 7 revealed bilateral Frisén Grade I papilledema with normal automated perimetry and absence of visual field defects. Neurological examination confirmed House-Brackmann Grade III facial palsy, and audiometry demonstrated bilateral high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss (right worse than left). After systematic exclusion of cerebellopontine angle lesions, demyelinating disorders, infectious neuritis, and venous sinus thrombosis, brain MRI showed a Grade IV sellar arachnoidocele and a neurovascular contact of the right facial nerve (Chavda Grade I). Lumbar puncture on Day 12 documented an opening pressure of 36 cm H<sub>2</sub>O with normal cerebrospinal fluid, confirming IIH. Acetazolamide was started on Day 13 together with a structured weight-management program. At the 2-month follow-up, audiometry demonstrated complete recovery. By 3 months, papilledema persisted (Frisén Grade I), best corrected visual acuity improved to 20/100 in both eyes, visual fields remained without enlargement of the physiological blind spot, and facial nerve function returned to House-Brackmann Grade I. However, at the 6-month follow-up, a new localized inferior scotoma was detected on Humphrey perimetry, representing a progression from previously normal visual fields, whereas spectral-domain OCT demonstrated bilateral optic atrophy with ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thinning, indicating irreversible axonal damage despite persistent papilledema.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This case broadens the phenotypic spectrum of IIH, showing that facial and vestibulocochlear neuropathies are reversible with pressure reduction. Yet, progressive visual field loss may ensue despite stable papilledema, revealing the optic disc as an unreliable proxy for neuronal integrity.

This case demonstrates a 39-year-old male who reported the ability to move each eye independently resulting in chronic binocular diplopia. He reported having an extensive work-up done by an outside ophthalmologist that returned unremarkable. His glasses on presentation had a mild myopic correction in both eyes (OU), 1.50 prism diopters (PD) base up (BU) in the right eye (OD), and 0.50 PD BU in the left eye (OS), which helped intermittently-but not completely-resolve his diplopia.

We report the longitudinal progression of horseshoe retinal tear-associated RRD without clinically evident complete PVD. A 64-year-old nonmyopic man presented to a general ophthalmology clinic with floaters and preserved visual acuity. Retrospective review of baseline ultrawidefield (UWF) imaging demonstrated a horseshoe retinal tear with localized macula-on temporal RRD extending to within approximately 2.5 disc diameters of the fovea, which had not been recognized initially. Posterior-pole optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed posterior hyaloid attachment at the macula and optic nerve head, without clinically evident complete PVD. However, posterior-pole OCT could not exclude localized peripheral vitreous separation or focal vitreoretinal adhesion adjacent to the tear. Approximately 6 months later, the patient presented with acute visual deterioration, and the detachment had progressed to a bullous macula-off RRD arising from the same tear. PVD was induced during pars plana vitrectomy. This case documents longitudinal progression of localized horseshoe retinal tear-associated RRD without clinically evident complete PVD. Although the underlying mechanism remains inferential, the clinical course is compatible with focal peripheral traction occurring before complete PVD becomes clinically evident. In symptomatic patients, preserved central visual acuity, unremarkable posterior-pole findings, and absence of clinically evident complete PVD should not lower concern for peripheral vitreoretinal traction, retinal breaks, or RRD. Meticulous peripheral retinal examination and intentional review of the temporal retina on UWF imaging remain essential.</p>","PeriodicalId":9603,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine","volume":"2026 ","pages":"4671416"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13539897/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148885997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
