  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 38-year-old male presented with blurring of vision in his left eye. He had been diagnosed 20months before as acute lymphocytic leukemia, ALL. Complete remission was achieved now by repeatedsessions of chemotherapy. The left eye showed diffusely thickened iris with 2+ cells and flare in the anteriorchamber. Topical corticosteroid was futile and the left eye developed hypopyon and an acute attack ofglaucoma. Iris specimen obtained during peripheral iridectomy showed infiltration of leukemic lymphoblastsin the iris stroma. Systemic chemotherapy induced rapid improvements and return to normal findings. Thiscase illustrates that the iris is a potential site of relapse of ALL even in adults.
