Case Description.
A 7-year-old neutered male golden retriever presented for examination 1 month following the observation of multifocal round brown structures in the anterior chamber of the left eye and similar, but blood-filled, structures in the right eye.
Clinical Findings.
Ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral iris hyperpigmentation, pigment deposition on the anterior lens capsule, and uveal cysts.
The uveal cysts in the right eye were partially blood filled.
Clinical findings were consistent with pigmentary uveitis of golden retrievers.
Treatment and Outcome.
The patient has been maintained on topical anti-inflammatories and no progression of the disease has occurred in eight months.
Clinical Relevance.
This paper emphasizes the importance of recognizing the unique clinical signs of pigmentary uveitis and highlights uveal hematocysts, a rare manifestation of the disease.
