Abstract

Herein an unusual case of Wegener's granulomatosis with a painless, bulbar-conjunctival ulcer in the right eye is reported. Rapid disease progression occurred with central retinal artery occlusion in the fellow eye. Biopsy of the diseased conjunctiva confirmed the clinical diagnosis. The clinical and histopathological findings are discussed.
