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