Abstract

We report a case of sudden monocular visual loss with drooping of upper eyelid in a 65 year old diabetic patient. Examination revealed complete ophthalmoplegia with optic neuropathy and paranasal sinusitis. Early diagnosis and prompt management with radical debridement of sinuses along with antifungal therapy helped in preventing further complications
