Abstract

Mollaret meningitis (MM) refers to benign recurrent aseptic meningitis usually following herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) infection. Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations associated with MM are rarely reported. We present a case of recurrent HSV-2 meningitis with the neuro-ophthalmic presentation of papilledema and sixth nerve palsy. To our knowledge, this is the first such description in the English language ophthalmic literature.
