Neuro ophthalmic manifestations of intracranial aneurysms: A case series

To report the various neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of patients with intracranial aneurysms at a tertiary eye care center in Southern India. This is a retrospective case series of patients in a single center between January 2017 and January 2018. We present a series of five cases of intracranial aneurysms in the age group of 13 to 66 years comprising four women and one boy. The patients had varied presentations on the initial examination. It is extremely rare that a patient visits a hospital due to visual symptoms caused by an aneurysmal compression of the optic nerve. An intracranial aneurysm needs to be ruled in cases of unexplained unilateral vision loss or nerve palsy. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment can save the patient from complete vision loss or other complications due to an aneurysm
