The presence of intra-retinal hemorrhages, cotton wool spots and/or Roth spots help differentiate IVLBCL from other similarly presenting diseases such as central serous chorioretinopathy and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease. New signs not previously described in IVLBCL include macular bacillary layer detachment and hypo-cyanescent spots on ultra-wide field indocyanine green angiography. The diagnosis is elusive and requires tissue biopsy, but systemic chemotherapy and rituximab can lead to rapid improvement of the eye.
