Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is a hematological disorder that has a high cure rate. It usually presents as asymptomatic lymphadenopathy or a mass on chest radiograph along with constitutional symptoms ("B" symptoms such as fever, night sweats, or unintended weight loss) in less than half the cases. Optic neuritis is a demyelinating condition that is rarely associated with HL. We present a case of HL that presented with optic neuritis as a paraneoplastic syndrome.
