Abstract

A 64 year male, operated for colonic non-Hodgkin B cell lymphoma presented with unilateral loss of vision. On fundus examination there was optic disc edema with creamy white metastasis in subretinal space and opacity of similar colour in vitreous cavity . Cytopathology of the vitreous humour tap conformed ocular metastasis from the colonic lymphoma. Intraocular metastasis of systemic lymphomas is an uncommon entity and to the best of our knowledge ocular metastasis from colonic lymphoma has not yet been reported.
