description | Ocular manifestations of tuberculosis are non-specific and polymorphic as they can affect all the tunics of the eye and cause severe visual loss in the absence of early and appropriate treatment. We here report 2 casesof pseudotumoral ocular tuberculosis with favorable outcome under antibacillary treatment; the first patient recently had had spontaneous burst of the eyeball with exit of a burgeoning fleshy and suppurative mass measuring 10cm/6cm, the second patient had granuloma of the ciliary body mimicking melanoma; then we here discuss the clinical and therapeutic particularities of this disease. |
