Our case and literature review indicates that optic neuropathy can present in the context of systemic inflammation of GPA, without any other signs of ocular or orbital involvement. Catching other clinical, imaging, and laboratory signs of systemic inflammation is important in cases of GPA-associated optic neuropathy with atypical presentations.
