{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>To report a rare case of a combined central retinal artery (CRA) and medial posterior ciliary artery (MPCA) occlusion due to an atherosclerotic lesion in the common trunk supplying both arteries.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A 75-year-old man presented with acute vision loss associated with elevated intraocular pressure in the right eye. Multi-modal imaging revealed a combined retinal and choroidal infarction in the distribution of the CRA and MPCA, localizing the lesion to the common trunk of the ophthalmic artery supplying both the CRA and MPCA. Neurovascular imaging provided supportive evidence for the diagnosis.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A simultaneous retinal and choroidal vascular occlusion is an uncommon presentation. Familiarity with the anatomy of the ophthalmic arteries and its branches facilitates localizing the lesion.
