A 42-year-old woman presented with chronic history of left red eye for more than 12 months, treated with difference topical medication but without response. Ocular external examination demonstrated a firm palpable mass in the medial portion of the lower eyelid and slit-lamp evaluation of the lesion showed an ulcerated conjunctival nodule, keratin secretor. CT of the orbits revealed left-sided orbital mass located anteriorly, inferiorly and medially in the orbit, adjacent to the globe and orbit walls. Incisional biopsy of the lesion was consistent with invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva. As the tumour had no response to initial adjuvant systemic chemotherapy, exenteration of left orbit was performed due to advanced disease.
