Abstract
A 47-year-old man presented with profound loss of vision in right eye and relative afferent pupillary defect. On fundus examination, posterior pole details were obscured due to dense vitreous haemorrhage. B-scan ultrasonography was performed that revealed a mushroom-shaped hyperechoic lesion with medium internal reflectivity on A-scan ultrasonography. After performing contrast-enhanced MRI of the orbit, a diagnosis of choroidal melanoma was established. Patient was managed using plaque brachytherapy based on multiplanar MRI. This was followed 10 months later by pars plana vitrectomy and cataract extraction. Vision postoperatively improved to 20/60. A systematic clinical assessment along with supportive ancillary investigations augments diagnostic accuracy and reduces delay in definitive management.
