Purpose. Herein, we report a case of primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL) with the first presentation of bilateral Epstein-Barr virus- (EBV-) associated panuveitis. Case Presentation. A 69-year-old male was referred with a three-day history of blurred vision and pain and redness in his left eye following cataract surgery. Examination revealed panuveitis, vitritis, and necrotizing retinitis with retinal hemorrhage. A month later, the right eye was also involved. Polymerase chain reaction-based analysis of the vitreous sample was positive for EBV, and cytological evaluation was compatible with the diagnosis of B-cell lymphoma. A significant improvement was observed following serial intravitreal rituximab and methotrexate injections. The central nervous system and lungs were involved after 6 months, and the patient expired despite systemic chemotherapy. Conclusion. There may be an association between EBV panuveitis and primary intraocular B-cell lymphoma.

Primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL) is a rare form of lymphoma which is encountered in ocular oncology practice. Most preferred treatment has been intravitreal MTX injections which do not have a long lasting chemotherapeutic effect due to rapid elimination of the drug. In this study, chitosan (CS) and polylactic acid (PLA) based intraocular implants are fabricated for different MTX loadings (10%, 25% and 40% w/w). The implants administer a therapeutic dosage of 0.2–2.0 μg/day of MTX over a period of a month. PLA coated CS-MTX implants can be used for sustained release of MTX, thereby improving the treatment of PIOL.
