Introduction: The eyelid is a common site for cutaneous tumors; however, tubular apocrine adenoma is a rare presentation. The clinical presentation is variable and surgical excision is effective with low risk for recurrence.
Presentation Of Case: We report a 40-year-old female with recurrent tubular apocrine adenoma of eyelid mimicking eyelid malignancy.
Aim: To determine whether the levator palpebrae superioris (LPS)/superior rectus (SR) muscle complex, can influence the position of the upper lid and fornix in acquired anophthalmic sockets.
Methods: This comparative non-randomized and non-interventional study included retrospective data of 21 patients with unilateral acquired anophthalmic sockets repaired with spheric implants. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) measurements of the LPM/SR muscle complex and clinical topographic position of the upper lid, superior and inferior fornix depth in primary gaze position were evaluated.
Introduction And Importance: Medulloepithelioma is the second most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in children but is often diagnosed late, which worsens the prognosis.
Case Presentation: We are reporting a 6-year-old boy presenting with a ciliary body (CB) teratoid malignant medulloepithelioma (TMM), which was missed at the initial presentation. We added our case to the 97 previously reported cases in our literature review that were confirmed by cytological or histopathological examination.
A systematic literature review revealed 88 Rosai-Dorfman Disease (RDD) cases affecting the orbit. We present a review of the literature on orbital RDD in addition to two brothers with isolated bilateral extra-nodal orbital RDD cases associated with G-6PD deficiency. The disease manifested as asymmetric extensive orbital and paranasal sinus infiltration, with orbital bone destruction.

Methods: A prospective study done at King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Thirty-six patients (45 eyelids) were involved.
Objective: To determine the preference for dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR), patient selection criteria for endoscopic DCR, endoscopic DCR technique, and barriers to adoption of endoscopic DCR.
Method: Cross-sectional study conducted from May-December 2021. A survey was sent to oculoplastic surgeons.
Purpose: To report a case series of seven patients with late presentation of orbital/subperiosteal abscess following oral treatment of orbital cellulitis.
Methods: A retrospective case series of all patients presented with orbital abscess following oral treatment of orbital cellulitis from two tertiary-care eye centres in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was conducted. Demographic profiles, risk factors, initial clinical presentation, management regimens, and final outcome were analysed.
Purpose: Incidences of ocular conditions, including meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), blepharitis, and dry eye have been increasing globally. Eyelid hygiene is key to maintaining ocular surface health and improving ocular symptoms. This study investigated the awareness of eyelid hygiene among the Saudi population.

Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed of patients with a discharge diagnosis of orbital cellulitis who presented to the King Abdul Aziz University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Saudi children born between 2000 and 2016 were included.
We report a healthy 18-year-old male Saudi with bilateral agenesis of the lacrimal puncta and canaliculi associated with large dacryocystocele on the right side without tearing or inflammation, detected in conjunction with other characteristic features of lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital dysplasia syndrome. Computed tomography scan indicated that dacryocystoceles were bilateral and asymmetrical, with large dimensions at the right side and associated to a right side maxillary sinus mucocele. The right dacryocystocele was surgically removed, and the histology indicated characteristics of the lacrimal sac.

We report a case of a 28-year-old pregnant woman in her second trimester with sino-orbital and subsequent brain involvement who tragically developed deterioration of her neurological status and a spontaneous abortion.
Observations: The patient presented to the ophthalmology emergency department, King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, complaining of left upper eyelid fullness with a palpable eyelid mass and chronic relapsing remitting dull pain for 4 months.
We report two healthy Saudi newborns with congenital bilateral upper lid eversion evolving with good outcome using conservative treatment. The current literature including epidemiology, clinical characteristics, possible etiologic factors, and treatment was reviewed.

Purpose: To describe an infant with Adams Oliver syndrome (AOS) with ocular signs similar to familial exudative vitreoretinopathy.
Observations: A full-term female infant presented with a congenital scalp defect, hypoplasia of the fingers and toes along with a radial retinal fold in the right eye and tractional retinal detachment in the left eye. Fluorescein angiography findings included peripheral retinal nonperfusion, irregular vascular sprouting beyond the vascular-avascular junction, pinpoint areas of hyperfluorescence as well as late peripheral and posterior vascular leakage.
The authors are describing two rare cases of dacryops involving the Krause accessory lacrimal glands and affecting the orbit. In both cases, the lesion was located in the inferior fornix, with no preceding trauma, surgery or trachomatous conjunctival scarring. The first case involved a clear orbital extension with evidence of optic nerve compression.
