description PURPOSE: To describe a case of bilateral choroidal osteoma (CO) in a patient with a history of langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). METHODS: A 24-year-old man complaining of gradually decreasing visual acuity in both eyes is presented. He had a history of lymphadenopathy, respiratory symptoms, and pathology-proven diagnosis of LCH. RESULTS: Ophthalmic clinical and imaging studies revealed bilateral CO. CONCLUSION: In this patient, we suggest a possible relationship between LCH and CO.
