Abstrakt:	Background/purpose: To report a case of unilateral choroidal detachment and serous retinal detachment in a patient with a history of untreated sarcoidosis. Methods: Case report. The patient is a 67-year-old African American man with a history of nontreated sarcoidosis and prostate cancer. His prostate cancer was treated several years earlier with external beam radiation therapy. The patient presented with blurred visual acuity of 20/30 and floaters in the right eye. He was discovered to have several hypopigmented choroidal lesions, 360-degree choroidal detachment, and shallow serous retinal detachment in the right eye. Results: The patient was treated with subtenons kenalog and oral prednisone with subsequent improvement of vision and resolution of choroidal and retinal detachment. Conclusion: Ocular sarcoidosis can involve any part of the eye and its adnexal tissues and may cause uveitis, episcleritis, scleritis, eyelid abnormalities, conjunctival granuloma, optic neuropathy, lacrimal gland enlargement, and orbital inflammation. Most patients with ophthalmic sarcoidosis have evidence of systemic involvement at the time of the initial examination and have bilateral ocular presentation. We present here the unique case of a 67-year-old man with unilateral 360-degree choroidal detachment and serous retinal detachment as an ocular presentation of sarcoidosis.
