dc.description.abstractA 72-year-old man has bilateral sudden visual loss (SVL), which occurs after sequentially transient bilateral vision loss (TVL) in one week. He also complained of headache, jaw claudication and weight loss for 4-5 months. His familial history and CT scan were normal but he had high ESR and CRP levels. His vision was no light perception (NLP) in both eyes and fundoscopy and FFA findings suggest right central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) and posterior ciliary artery occlusion on left eye. Bilateral temporal artery biopsy was positive for temporal arteritis (TA). However, intravenous bolus methylprednisolone treatment was given to the patientin 72 h and after intravenous treatment oral prednisone was given to the patient.The vision impairment was not occur in 3 months.In older patient, TVL, headache, jaw claudication may show TA. Early diagnosis of TA may prevent total visual loss.en_US
