Abstract

Transformation of lymphoma is an infrequent phenomenon, and involvement of the eye as such is even uncommon. Histological transformation in patients with follicular lymphoma who were previously treated with immune-chemotherapy carry a poor outcome. Here, we illustrate such a case with aggressive histological transformation from a low-grade lymphoma.
