title: Ischemic oculopathy.
abstract: A 58-year-old woman had unilateral visual loss, anterior uveitis, rubeosis, and glaucoma. She subsequently was found to have a complete occlusion of the internal carotid on the same side. The clinician is reminded to consider a diagnosis of carotid insufficiency in elderly patients with anterior uveitis or rubeosis of obscure origin.
