Purpose: To report a patient who had concomitant congenital hamartoma of the retinal pigment epithelium and retina and ipsilateral congenital blepharoptosis.
Methods: Case report.
Results: An 11-year-old male presented with left-sided congenital blepharoptosis and combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium in the ipsilateral eye. The systemic examination was within normal limits. The diagnosis of combined hamartoma was established by typical ophthalmoscopic and optical coherence tomography findings.
Conclusion: Congenital blepharoptosis may be associated with ipsilateral combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium.

Nasal and paranasal sinus masses can arise from a wide range of conditions, both benign and malignant, as well as congenital or acquired. Diagnosing these masses is often challenging, requiring a combination of nasal endoscopy, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. Initial imaging frequently involves computed tomography or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the bony anatomy of the nasal cavity and surrounding sinuses, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically used for detailed assessment of soft tissues and to aid in differential diagnosis when the findings are inconclusive.
