RESUMEN

This paper highlights the case of a 46-year-old female patient who seeks ophthalmic medical advice for her complaint about double vision on right gaze. Patient's medical history reveals several symptoms like headaches, progressive hearing loss on right side and dysphonia for which all investigations proved irrelevant. Thourough clinical examination, lab exams and imaging techniques revealed the cause for this symptoms i.e. glomic tumour with middle ear extention. We find this case to be exceptional as ocular symptoms led to the diagnose of a non-ocular serious, possible life threatening condition, bearing in mind that previously occured non-ocular symptoms couldn't elucidate the cause.
