We observed unilateral granuloma of the optic nervehead due to sarcoidosis in 2 cases. The first case, a 17-year-old female, showed granulomatous mass on the disc with retinal edema in the left eye. Transbronchial lung biopsy showd noncaseous gra-nuloma and led to the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. The second case, a 65-year-old male, showed granulo-matous mass on the disc with retinal hemorrhage in his right eye. Systemic manifestations of sar-coidosis were initially absent. Sarcoidosis was diagnosed 6 months later by elevated serum level of angiotensin converting enzyme and presence of lymphocytosis by bronchoalveolar lavage. The findings suggest that repeated examinations for sarcoidosis are mandatory in patients with granu-lomatous lesions on the optic disc of unknown etiology.
