    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Scleritis is a serious inflammatory condition of the sclera.
    • Necrotizing scleritis, a severe form, can lead to vision loss.
    • This case presents a unique presentation without a history of systemic autoimmune disease.

    Observation:

    • A 53-year-old woman presented with bilateral necrotizing inflammation of the sclera.
    • The left eye exhibited necrotizing nodular scleritis.
    • The right eye presented with a massive scleral granuloma and orbital adnexae involvement.

    Findings:

    • The right eye's granulomatous infiltration of orbital adnexae mimicked an orbital tumor post-enucleation.
    • Histopathological examination confirmed necrotizing inflammation and granuloma formation.
    • The rapid development of fibroadipose tissue post-enucleation in the right orbit was a notable finding.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering rare scleral inflammatory diseases.
    • Accurate diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent vision-threatening complications.
    • Understanding the potential for post-enucleation orbital changes in severe scleritis is vital for patient care.
