Özet

Sixty-nine-year-old male patient, having treatment after one month due to lung adenocancer, was admitted to our clinic with the complaint of blurred vision in the left eye. Fundoscopy examination revealed irregular macula in both eyes and metastasis in both eyes choroid in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). In our case, it was observed that although both eye choroids had metastasized, the complaints of the eyes were lost with radiotherapy. In this case, a patient who developed eye metastases during the follow-up of lung cancer after completion of chemotherapy is presented. The patient with eye metastases improved after radiotherapy.
