Thyroid eye disease is an auto-immune mediated orbitopathy which can cause dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy. Traditional management of active thyroid eye disease includes temporizing high-dose steroids, orbital radiation and surgical decompression, which each possess significant limitations and/or side effects. Teprotumumab is an IGF-IR inhibitor recently FDA-approved for active thyroid eye disease. The authors report reversal of bilateral dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy managed medically utilizing teprotumumab.

Purpose. To present a unique case of Non-Hodgkin’s-Lymphoma- (NHL) associated compressive optic neuropathy.Method. An 89-year-old male presenting with acute unilateral visual loss and headache.Results. Patient was initially diagnosed with occult giant cell arteritis; however after visual acuity deteriorated despite normal inflammatory markers, an urgent MRI scan revealed an extensive paranasal sinus mass compressing the optic nerve.Conclusion. Paranasal sinus malignancies occasionally present to the ophthalmologist with signs of optic nerve compression and must be included in the differential diagnosis of acute visual loss.
