Summary
A 49-year-old man developed blurred vision from his left eye two days after the onset of a moderately severe global headache. His left eye vision deteriorated further over one week. He had an unremarkable past medical history. He was on no medication. He did not smoke cigarettes. He drank three cans of beer and two whiskeys at the weekend.
