Sarcoidosis is a chronic disease of unknown aetiology. Neurosarcoidosis is registered in 5% of patients with sarcoidosis. Clinical manifestations of sarcoidosis are numerous and diverse. Manifestation of Neurosarcoidosis includes partial- and grand-mal seizures, low-grade fever, headache, increased intracranial pressure, visual disturbances, diabetes insipidus, amenorrhea- galacterorrhea syndrome and pituitary failure, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, hyperprolactinemia, unilateral and bilateral facial palsy, infiltration of meninges (aseptic meningitis) and nerve roots, leptominingitis, pachymeningitis with cranial neuropathies, pseudotumor, mild cognitive disorder, psychosis, delirium, dementia, disorientation, amnesia, progressive visual deterioration and proptosis, axonal polyneuropathies, mononeuropathies, chronic polyradiculoneuritis, peripheral neuropathy, cranial nerve abnormalities, radiculopathies, peripheral neuropathy, mononeuritis multiplex, progressive numbness and deep sensation disturbance in bilateral lower extremities, hemiplegia, hyperreflexia with pathological reflexes and hypesthesia, upward gaze palsy, spinal cord compression, dysarthria, dysphagia, weakness, episodes of blurred vision, diplopia, intracerebral hemorrhage, neuro-ophthalmic manifestations, intranuclear ophthalmoplegia, dysorientation, vasculitis presenting with strokes, intracranial hypothalamic lesion, paresthesis, hemiparesis, myelopathy in the cervico-thoracic region, lumbar pain, sensory level and inability of lateral gaze (Tab. 2, Ref. 60).

Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic granulomatous chronic disease of unknown etiology with a wide range of clinical presentations. Diagnosis of sarcoidosis in patients with ocular manifestations can be challenging. We first describe a case of sarcoidosis presented with pulmonary involvement and both uveitis and internuclear ophthalmoplegia as ocular manifestations. A 55-year-old caucasian woman with non-productive cough and weakness presented with bilateral granulomatous anterior uveitis. Few days later, the patient presented again complaining of horizontal diplopia due to internuclear ophthalmoplegia. The diagnosis of sarcoidosis was made as a result of clinical examination and systemic investigations. Particularly, high-resolution computed tomography scanning of the chest was able to identify bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy not previously detected by chest X-ray. Biopsy confirmed diagnosis showing classic non-caseating granulomas.
