Abstract
Insects are a class of living creatures within the arthropods. Bite is a wound produced by the mouth parts of an insect. Although insect bite reactions are commonly seen in clinical practice, especially in dermatology clinics, injuries from insect bites are less commonly encountered in ophthalmology clinics. Herein, we report a 28-year-old male presenting with a rapidly growing mass on his right upper eyelid following a suspected insect bite.
