    Author: Tanawade RG, Thampy RS, Wilson S, Lloyd IC, Ashworth J.
    Journal: Orbit; 2015 Jun; 34(3):172-4. PubMed ID: 25879778.
    Abstract:
    A 16-year-old girl presented with a unilateral red eye, progressive visual loss and diplopia. A detailed clinical assessment with appropriate investigations led to a diagnosis of Orbital Apex Syndrome (OAS) secondary to Tuberculosis (TB). We report this unusual case of TB OAS, which resulted in a poor visual outcome despite appropriate management.
