Abstract :
Purpose: To report the simultaneous presentation of three ocular manifestations of granulomatosis with
polyangiitis in one eye.
Case Report: A 42‑year‑old man with a confirmed diagnosis of granulomatosis with polyangiitis was referred
to the emergency room with sudden blurred vision. Eye examination showed hyperemic conjunctiva due
to necrotizing scleritis in the superior nasal quadrant of the left eye, a mass in the left superior lid, as well
as central retinal artery occlusion in the same eye.
Conclusion: This case suggests that unilateral eye involvement may be a manifestation of underlying
granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
