Abstract

Uveitis can produce a host of signs throughout the eye. Cylinders, snowballs, condensations, and snowbanks in the vitreous have been described. The authors report two cases of chronic ocular inflammation with a novel sign of a prefoveal white vitreous condensation. One patient is a 6-year-old child with intermediate uveitis and positive results for PPD, and the second is a 65-year-old woman with bilateral recurrent intraocular lymphoma. Both cases responded well to vitrectomy and treatment of the inflammation.
