Abstrakt
A patient presented with headache, soreness over her scalp and general malaise. She was treated for hypertension, but later went blind in one eye. Following referral to the Eye Department, she was treated successfully for six episodes of blindness in her second eye. The case highlights the ways in which temporal arteritis may present. Prompt treatment will save vision, but a missed diagnosis may result in blindness.
