Conjunctival Lymphangiectasia - case report.

Conjunctival lymphangiectasia is a rare pathology that represents the enlargement of the lymphatic vessels localized in the conjunctiva. Patients may be asymptomatic or experience symptoms such as foreign body sensation, congestion, irritation, dryness, and blurry vision. There are various methods of therapy for patients with severe and symptomatic conjunctival lymphangiectasia. Surgical excision has the lowest rates of recurrence. We present a case of a 24-year-old woman with conjunctival lymphangiectasia and a history of left lower limb enlargement and bilaterally enlarged submandibular and upper jugular lymph nodes without an identifiable cause, who presented to the ophthalmology clinic accusing ocular discomfort, foreign body sensation and transparent conjunctival cystic lesions in the left eye for the last five months. OD = right eye, OS = left eye, OCT = optical coherence tomography, VEGF = vascular endothelial growth factor.
