A case report shows unilateral chemosis linked to superior vena cava syndrome, suggesting early diagnosis potential.

Imaging and cytological analyses revealed pulmonary adenocarcinoma causing superior vena cava (SVC) obstruction. Resolution of chemosis after radiotherapy suggests that such distinctive ocular findings may serve as an early clinical clue to underlying SVC syndrome.
