Introduction: Ruthenium-106 (Ru-106) brachytherapy is one of the commonest eye-sparing treatments for choroidal melanoma. These patients require long-term surveillance of the treated tumour remnant to ensure there is no local recurrence. New or progressive pigmented lesions in treated eyes are often regarded as suspicious - especially if there are concerns of extra-scleral extension.

Purpose: To report a patient with a unilateral presentation of glaucoma, pain, and acute iris transillumination syndrome simulating iris melanoma.
Observations: A 53-year-old male presented with blurred vision and pain in his right eye several weeks following a respiratory sinus infection managed by oral azithromycin. Examination of the right eye was notable for elevated intraocular pressure of 46 mm Hg, an irregular mid-dilated pupil, and diffuse iris transillumination with pigmentary seeding on the iris surface, in the anterior chamber angle, and on the sclera, suspicious for diffuse iris melanoma with glaucoma and extrascleral extension.
