Clinical features and the prognostic significance of ocular sarcoidosis
Journal Title: Archives of Pulmonology and Respiratory Care - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical features of ocular sarcoidosis. The second aim was to assess the influence of eye involvement on the prognostic outcome, extrapulmonary organ, and endobronchial involvement in sarcoidosis patients. Third objective was to determine the contribution of ocular involvement to final diagnosis in patients presenting with an equivocal sarcoidosis diagnosis due to single organ disease.
