Abstract
PURPOSE: To report primary retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) detachments in sarcoidosis. DESIGN: Case report. METHODS: Clinical findings, fluorescence angiography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) results are presented and discussed. RESULTS: A 54-year-old Hispanic male with biopsy proved sarcoidosis presented with multiple RPE detachment in both eyes. Except for acute iritis, there were no other ocular manifestations of sarcoidosis. CONCLUSIONS: Detachments of the RPE may be a rare manifestation of ocular sarcoidosis.
