Scleritis is an inflammation of the whole thickness of the sclera, which can cause serious ocular morbidity with severe vision loss and morbidity. GPA can provoke nodular, diffuse, or necrotizing scleritis, which can be more severe than the scleritis of other etiologies [
21]. The scleritis in GPA can be categorized into anterior or posterior, which have different complications. Anterior scleritis is also subcategorized into diffuse, nodular, or necrotizing. It is reported to occur in 16–38% of patients with GPA, making it the third most common ocular manifestation of GPA according to Hoffman et al. [
22]. Scleritis can be the initial clinical manifestation of GPA, and typically presents with severe, deep, boring pain that can radiate to the temple and the jaw. The pain worsens at night, waking the patient up. It also manifests with eye redness and tenderness upon palpation [

24]. Areas of severe vasculitis causing capillary occlusion in the deep episcleral vascular plexus characterize the disease. This situation leads to infarction and necrosis of the affected sclera, exposing the underlying pigmented uveal tissue of the choroid [
22]. Necrotizing scleritis has been reported to follow routine cataract surgery in patients with GPA. It is characterized by scleral thinning and a bluish appearance of the choroid and is associated with systemic disease. It may result in scarring, infection and, in rare cases, ocular perforation and phthisis bulbi. Scleral inflammation can affect adjacent ocular structures such as the cornea, trabecular meshwork, and ciliary body, which can lead to keratitis, corneal ulceration, uveitis, ocular hypertension, or glaucoma [
