Abstract

A patient presented with acute onset of double vision during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic when elective medical care was restricted. Initially declining an in-person evaluation, she was examined using a telehealth video visit, incorporating multiple technological modalities to ascertain ophthalmic examination elements. Her findings prompted emergent neuroimaging, revealing a giant internal carotid artery aneurysm, which was successfully embolized to prevent debilitating and possibly fatal intracranial haemorrhage. This case report illustrates the successful use of telemedicine and remote patient data acquisition to make a life-saving diagnosis.
