Anterior segment granuloma and optic nerve involvement as the presenting signs of systemic sarcoidosis.

PURPOSE: To report a case with anterior and posterior nodules associated with systemic sarcoidosis. METHODS: A patient with decreased vision underwent complete ophthalmologic examination, ultrasound biomicroscopy, fluorescein and indocyanine green (ICG) angiography. RESULTS: The patient presented a nodule of the iris of the OS and of the optic nerves of both eyes. Chest computed tomography and tissue biopsy established the diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Fluorescein and ICG angiography are the only objective exams to demonstrate the extent of ocular involvement in a patient with sarcoidosis.
