DOI: 10.37039/1982.8551.20230027
ABSTRACT
Ocular metastasis is an uncommon pathology, especially when considering the iris as the site of metastasis. Although uncommon, eye metastasis has breast cancer as one of its main primary sites. Occasionally, the ophthalmologic manifestation may be primary to any other clinical manifestation. This article reports the case of a patient with invasive ductal breast carcinoma with presumed metastasis in the ciliary body and iris in the right eye. Early diagnosis significantly affects the evolution of the condition, requiring ophthalmologic follow-up.
