We present a rare case of asymptomatic primary lung adenocarcinoma that first manifested with ocular symptoms and an iris lesion. ABSTRACT Ocular manifestations rarely represent the first sign of systemic malignancy and often pose a diagnostic challenge. While choroidal metastases are more common, iris involvement is uncommon and may be underrecognized.

Abstract Background Imaging of the retina is accompanied by distortions so that positions in fundus photographs cannot be linearly translated to positions in the retinal fundus. The purpose of this study was to describe an algorithm and evaluate its reproducibility in identifying points on the retina from their representation on serial fundus ...
