Oculomotor nerve palsy is a rare neurological impairment linked to various conditions. Aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery are the most documented. However, less commonly discussed are other vascular anomalies and their potential role in causing ONP. Here, we present a case of ONP caused by a congenital vascular aberrancy.
