These cases highlight the difficulty of distinguishing intraocular inflammation associated with leukemic papillopathy from infectious or non-infectious uveitis, especially considering bland LP and negative retrobulbar MRI signal in all our patients. We propose juxtapapillary inner retinal infiltration with the loss of inner retinal lamination and relative preservation of outer retinal architecture on OCT imaging as a finding that supports the diagnosis of leukemic papillopathy.
