Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is a neuroendocrine tumor with high probability of early disseminated disease and para-neoplastic syndromes. Choroid is the most common uveal tissue affected by metastatic disease followed by iris and ciliary body. Herein, we present a 46-year-old male with bilateral multiple iris metastasis. Once diagnosed, the patient already had diagnosis of SCLC with cranial and bone metastases.

Keywords: Chemotherapy, iris metastasis, small cell lung carcinoma.
