Yes: A self-limited syndrome of encephalopathy, branch retinal occlusion and hearing loss. Mri findings include multifocal cerebral white matter lesions>lesions affecting the basal ganglia and thalamus(cortical nuclei that relay information). The corpus callosum is always involved. A large white matter fiber tract that relays information from one side of the brain to the other.

Yes: But i think you also have to have retinal microangiopathy to make the diagnosis which means you need to see your eye doctor as well.
