Abstract
An unusual-appearing tumor of the conjunctiva presented in a healthy 11-year-old boy. It was cystic, orange in color, and well encapsulated. After 3 weeks of no response to topical cortisone drops, an excisional biopsy was performed. The histopathology showed the lesion to be a benign lymphoid hyperplasia. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2022;59(1):e15-e16.].
