Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma in ocular region is a rare phenomenon which can be either primary or secondary. Most of these cases are usually diagnosed after excisional biopsy of the involved area with first visit being in the Ophthalmology OPD. We share our experience of two such cases being referred from Ophthalmology OPD. 1st case is about a 52-year-old man who came for complaints of redness of left eye with excessive lacrimation. Examination revealed congestion of left temporal bulbar conjunctiva and a small pinkish outgrowth 2 × 2 cm adherent to temporal bulbar conjunctiva. 2nd case is a 55-year-old gentlemen who presented with complaints for 8 months duration of swelling left eyelid. Excisional biopsy and histopathological examination in both the cases were done to confirm the diagnosis. CECT head and neck were done at baseline and during follow up. These cases are being presented due to the rarity and dramatic response to chemotherapy.
