Design: Noninterventional retrospective case series composed of 7 patients. Results: Nevus flammeus combined with ipsilateral ocular melanocytosis or melanosis was seen in all 7 patients. Additional contralateral nevus flammeus was observed in 3 patients. Nevus flammeus (unilateral in 4 patients and bilateral in 3 patients) was distributed in trigeminal nerves V1 (n = 3), V2 (n = 7), and V3 (n=5). Related findings included diffuse choroidal hemangioma (n=1) and glaucoma (n=1), with no patients having brain hemangioma or seizures. Ocular pigmentary abnormalities (unilateral in all 7 patients) included congenital ocular melanocytosis (n=6) and conjunctival acquired melanosis (n = 1). Pigmentation was sectorial (partial) in 5 patients and complete in 2 patients. Melanocytosis involved the periocular skin in 1 patient, sclera in 2 patients, iris in 2 patients, and choroid in 4 patients. In 3
