Purpose: To add to the existing yet limited body of knowledge around crystal-storing histiocytosis (CSH) with two case reports of localized ocular CSH and associated mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma involving the lacrimal and orbital soft tissues without underlying systemic lymphoproliferative disorders and to provide a literature review of all cases of CSH with associated ophthalmic findings reported to date.
Observations: A 62-year-old male presented with a one-year history of right greater than left upper eyelid swelling and epiphora. Ophthalmic exam and computed tomography (CT) head scan revealed bilateral soft tissue masses superior to the globe encasing the supraorbital artery with poor margins from the superior rectus muscle.
