[Eye manifestations of sarcoidosis].
Ophthalmologic manifestations of sarcoidosis are multiform, and all parts of the structure of the eyeball can be affected. Involvement of the conjunctiva and of the lacrimal glands is the most frequent and is benign. Uveitis is observed in 20% of patients. It is generally torpid, evolving in chronic fashion. The possibility of uveitis requires routine investigation in all patients with sarcoidosis. Neuro-ophthalmologic involvement is rare but severe. When isolated, it presents difficult problems of diagnosis.
