A case of a 79-year-old man, affected by persistent right eye blindness after multiple episodes of transient left hemiparesis and right eye amaurosis. Brain computed tomography (Angio CT) well documented right internal carotid artery (ICA) plaque with a 8-mm thrombus extending from ICA origin to the ophthalmic artery, in progressive lysis in the next days.
