{Abstract}: The frontal and anterior ethmoidal sinus mucoceles may enlarge progressively and invade into the orbit by destructing the bony walls of the sinuses leading to diplopia or proptosis, but it rarely result in optic nerve impairment. We report on a case of fronto-ethmoidal sinus mucoceles presenting with unilateral optic disc edema without visual disturbances. Ocular manifestations, radiographic techniques, and histopathological evaluation were used to make the diagnosis. Early diagnosis through a combination of ophthalmological examinations and radiographic techniques is imperative in patients with fronto-ethmoidal sinus mucoceles presenting with optic disc edema. It is important for the ophthalmologist to be aware of the ocular manifestations associated with sinus mucoceles to avoid misdiagnosis.
