A 75-year-old white man with suspected glaucoma and previously normal automated visual fields (AVF; Fig 1A) and a past medical history notable for acephalgic migraine presented to a glaucoma clinic for annual evaluation. At the beginning of the visit, the patient had no new ocular complaints. Visual acuity was 20/30 in the right eye and 20/25 in the left. Pupils were equal, round, and reactive with no afferent pupillary defect. Intraocular pressure was 21 mmHg bilaterally by applanation tonometry.

Paraneoplastic syndromes constitute symptoms from organs distant from a malignant neoplasm present in the body, and are in many cases mediated by immune cross-reactivity between the neoplasm and normal host tissue. Cancer-associated retinopathies (CAR) are rare retinal disorders associated with autoantibodies directed to various retinal antigens. The immune response initially arises to suppress a tumor growth, ultimately resulting in rapid, bilateral, and painless loss of vision.1 If a subsequent clinical investigation reveals an underlying malignancy, the retinal damage is categorized as a paraneoplastic syndrome.
