Sarcoidosis Granuloma of the Conjunctiva of the Lid

Sarcoidosis Granuloma of the Conjunctiva of the Lid
Barely visible, slightly elevated and glassy, multiple granulomas are in the tarsal conjunctiva. Since this is a favored location for the granulomas of sarcoid the conjunctiva can be biopsied to confirm a suspicion of the disease.
