“…AlOqab et al reported a sixyear-old male patient with GA on the right upper eyelid and the dorsal surface of the foot. [9] Unlike in this case, no additional involvement was observed in the extraocular examination in our case. The patients diagnosed with granuloma annulare with periocular involvement, as documented in the literature, are summarized in Table 1.…”

Granuloma annulare (GA) is common in children, but the eyelids are not a common site of involvement. Due to the infrequent association of eyelid lesions with GA, patients are unable to receive early and effective treatment. Our eleven-year-old female patient presented with the complaint of a painless mass on the right upper eyelid that did not respond to the topical drugs prescribed in clinics. An incisional biopsy was performed to diagnose the patient with an unusual subcutaneous raised lesion on the eyelid. The histopathological result was consistent with immunohistochemical staining and granuloma annulare showing CD68 positivity. Intralesional steroid injection was performed because the lesion caused the patient cosmetic problems. The lesion began to regress significantly in the first week and did not recur. The atypical location of the GA lesions in the eyelid seen at a young age should be kept in mind and treated effectively.

“…However, in children, case series related to more commonly affected areas have been observed. AlOqab et al reported a 6-year-old male patient with GA on the right upper eyelid and the dorsal surface of the foot 9 . Unlike this case, no additional involvement was observed in the extraocular examination in our case.…”

“…GA is typically a self-limiting disease and predominantly affects the lateral and dorsal areas of the hands and feet [1]. Ocular involvement in GA is a rare association with only a few case reports describing signs, such as uveitis and periocular granulomatous lesions [2][3][4]. Notably, there is no known corneal manifestation of GA existing in the literature.…”

Granuloma annulare is a well-known skin disease characterised by small papules arranged in a ring around a lesion with a normal atrophic centre. It may have variable clinical presentations and associations. Herein, we describe its novel ocular association with inflammatory granulomatous corneal disease (IGCD). It was observed in a young patient diagnosed with granuloma annulare. His symptoms included blurring of vision associated with photophobia in both eyes. There was marked stromal oedema with corneal haze at variable depths and mild anterior chamber flare. It resolved completely with topical steroids. This case discusses a unique manifestation of multisystemic IGCD with granuloma annulare that may co-exist with skin lesions. To the best of our knowledge, this unique entity has not been described in the literature previously.

“…2 However, lesions in that area tend to lack an annular pattern which may pose diagnostic challenges. 3 The authors report on a rare case of upper eyelid GA manifesting in an unusual location in a young female adult. This case report adheres to the ethical principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki as amended in 2013.…”

Case Reports blue nevi, as the name suggests, contain islets of hypercellular bland polygonal or spindle cells without atypia.The malignant potential of blue nevi is extremely low. Atypical cellular blue nevi and melanomas do occur, however, and their malignant histopathology is unpredictable from a clinical examination. For that reason full-thickness eyelid excision of tarsal pigmented lesions with at least 2-mm margins has been recommended. 2
