General: Hodgkin disease begins in the lymph nodes and usually spr 959c22j eads in a predictable fashion along contiguous chains of nodes; etiology may be viral; prevalent in males.

Ocular: Keratitis; uveitis; cataract; retinal hemorrhages; vasculitis; Horner syndrome; cortical blindness; papilledema; paralysis of oculomotor nerve; episcleritis; visual field defects; infiltration of choroid, conjunctiva, lacrimal gland, and orbit; papillitis; retrobulbar neuritis; opsoclonus-myoclonus; keratitis sicca; infiltrative optic neuropathy; association with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome; bilateral serous detachments of the macula.

Clinical: Painless cervical, axillary, or inguinal lymph node swelling; fever; weight loss; anemia; generalized pruritus.
