title: Gaze-evoked amaurosis heralding orbital angiomyoma. Case report.
abstract: The unusual case of a patient presenting with gaze-evoked amaurosis as an early and isolated sign of orbital angiomyoma is reported. Computed tomography or magnetic resonance of the orbits need to be expeditiously performed in patients with gaze-evoked amaurosis in order to identify or rule out the possible presence of an underlying tumor.
