We present a 32-years-old patient who was hospitalized in Ophthalmological Clinic from Iaşi because a slow visual acuity diminishing, visual field troubles and neurological symptoms which appeared after a cranial contusion. Ophthalmological and neurosurgical exams established "optochiasmic arachnoiditis" diagnosis, which was confirmed peroperator.
