Nodular syphilitic scleritis: a rare and forgotten entity.

Ocular manifestations of syphilis are usually seen in the secondary or tertiary stages of the disease, which is a nonspecific inflammatory response. We report a case of unilateral nodular scleritis in a patient with late latent syphilis, which resolved with intravenous crystalline penicillin for 2 weeks, topical fluorometholone, and tobramycin eye drops for 3 weeks.
