Case presentation A 52-year-old woman who had been treated by radiotherapy for ENKTL, nasal type in the right nasal cavity presented with a dramatic deterioration of vision in right eye. Physical and accessory examination showed extensive ocular tissue related, including conjunctiva, ciliary body, vitreous and retina.
