Abstract

We have described a case of ocular myocysticercosis in a 26-year-old male patient, who presented with sudden onset proptosis of the right eye and double vision for 8 days with no history of trauma. MRI showed well defined peripherally enhancing intraconal lesion suggestive of myocysticercosis in the inferior rectus muscle. On administration of low dose oral steroids followed by antihelminthic medications, patient showed marked improvement.
