Introduction And Importance: Ocular involvement in lichen planus is highly uncommon, primarily affecting the eyelids, conjunctiva, and less frequently, the cornea. Peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK), a rare subtype form of corneal lichen planus, has been reported only once in the literature.
Case Presentation: The authors report details of a 34-year-old man with confirmed cutaneous lichen planus who developed severe PUK, a rare ocular manifestation of lichen planus.

Key Clinical Message: The co-occurrence of myasthenia gravis (MG) and lichen planus (LP) is a rare phenomenon, with only 13 cases reported in the English literature between 1971 and 2024. Patients with MG or LP, regardless of the thymoma status, require close monitoring for other autoimmune diseases.

Background: Lichen planus (LP) is a common inflammatory condition of unknown etiology that commonly affects the skin and mucous membranes. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noninvasive technique for identifying early retinal vascular impairment in systemic disease without clinical damage by imaging deep and superficial capillary networks.
Aims: To assess the impacts of LP on the choroid and assess vascular changes in retinal capillary density using OCTA.
