Abstract/OtherAbstract:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this case report is to highlight the clinical characteristics of a recurrent chalazion through the use of digital photography and ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography (UHROCT). CASE REPORT: A single case is presented, along with digital biomicroscopic photographs and UHROCT images. DISCUSSION: A review of the literature describing the histopathological and associations of chalazia and other disorders, suggest it may be possible to differentiate different eyelid conditions based on their clinical manifestations and appearance on UHROCT tomograms. Based on the images presented here, it appears that this case is typical of a post-menopausal incidence of chalazion and risk for acne rosacea.
