A 56-year-old man was referred to the Department of Ophthalmology, General Hospital of Kavala, for evaluation of vision loss in his right eye. He had undergone surgical removal of a gastric tumor 15 days previously. Two days before surgery, he complained of slightly blurred vision and mild bulbar pain exacerbated by ocular movement.
