dc.description.abstractPurpose: Cutaneous anthrax of the eyelid is a rare condition in clinical practice, but should be considered in the differential diagnosis of preseptal and orbital cellulitis. Here we report a case of palpebral anthrax. Case report: A 5-year-old girl with anthrax infection of the right upper eyelid is presented. Her eyelid showed an edematous, necrotic, and partially bullous lesion. Following complete healing of the eyelid lesion, mild cicatricial ectropion resulted. Conclusion: Anthrax is a rare disease that is not well known by ophthalmologists. Clinicians should be aware of the complications and the management of palpebral anthrax.en_US
