A75-year-old female patient presented with bilateral progressive loss of vision. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was hand movements in the right eye and 1/50 in the left eye. The spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) showed thinning of the outer retina suspected to be due to autoimmune retinopathy. Aneuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterus was diagnosed during tumor screening. Under systemic therapy with corticosteroids the visual acuity improved to 20/200 in the right eye and 20/80 in the left eye. Cancer-associated retinopathy (CAR) is aparaneoplastic autoimmune retinopathy.
