Abstract

Hydroa vacciniforme-like lymphoproliferative disorder (HVLPD) is characterized by vesiculopapular eruptions on sun-exposed and sometimes unexposed skin. Though ocular involvement in HVLPD is rare, it may present with conjunctivitis, corneal opacities, uveitis, and interstitial keratitis. We report a case of a 7-year-old boy with HVLPD, whose ophthalmic symptoms were neglected for over 2years, who developed anterior uveitis and corneal nebulae without vision impairment. Awareness of eye involvement in patients with HVLPD may help to prevent severe complications.
