Case Report: Therapeutic biopsy guided targeted therapy improves visual acuity and prolongs survival in bilateral uveal metastases as the initial presentation of lung adenocarcinoma

BackgroundAlthough uveal metastasis is common in lung cancer, reports of bilateral uveal metastasis as the initial symptom in lung adenocarcinoma patients undergoing intraocular biopsy are rare. Such cases typically portend poor outcomes, with a median survival of only 6.5 months. The current diagno...
