ABSTRACT
A 12-year-old boy with a diagnosis of Joubert syndrome with bilateral horizontal nystagmus was evaluated. Neovascularization over the iris and the pupillary border was observed on biomicroscopy. There was pigmentary retinal dystrophy in both eyes. Fundus fluorescein angiography revealed ischemic areas and fluorescein leakage due to retinal neovascularization in both eyes.

We report a rare case ofophthalmoplegic migraine associated with isolated, recurrent unilateral eyelid ptosis in a 10-year-old girl. Labrotory test, pediatric and pediatric neurological examinations and imaging were normal. Recurrent isolated ptosis is a very rare manifestation of ophthalmoplegic migraine. Its recognition saves patient from unnecessary tests and interventions.
