ABSTRACT
The occurrence of clinically symptomatic intraocular metastases as an initial manifestation of primary neoplasm is rare event. The recognition of metastatic ocular tumors is important since they indicate a poor prognosis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve the quality of life for these patients. We report the case of a 48-year-old man presenting with a two-week history of left sided intraocular pain with blurring of vision and headache, which are the first signs of small-cell lung carcinoma.
