Description
Vitreoretinal lymphoma: primarily central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) with ocular involvement, is a rare type of cancer that affects the vitreous and retina. It usually occurs in older adults and may be associated with central nervous system lymphoma. Symptoms include decreased vision, floaters, and photopsias, often misdiagnosed as uveitis due to its clinical presentation.
