Résumé

Choroidal metastases of lung cancer are very uncommon. This localization should be suspected on blurred vision and confirmed with an ophthalmological examination. Its treatment is not entirely codified. We report a case of blurred vision secondary to bilateral choroidal metastasis in a patient with choroidal metastases from a lung adenocarcinoma, treated by intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injection and external beam radiotherapy. According to a literature review, we analyzed the place of the targeted treatments used alone or combined with the radiotherapy.
