Case Report of Ocular Surface Squamous Neoplasia

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) represents a spectrum of dysplastic and malignant epithelial lesions involving the conjunctiva and cornea. It is the most common non-pigmented malignancy of the ocular surface. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial to prevent visual impairment and local invasion. We report a case of a 56-year-old female presenting with a slowly progressive conjunctival lesion in the right eye, managed successfully with excisional biopsy using the no-touch technique followed by adjuvant topical mitomycin-C. Histopathological examination confirmed low-grade squamous dysplasia. This case highlights the clinical presentation, surgical management, and role of adjunctive chemotherapy in OSSN.
