Abstract

Lacrimal gland dacryops are an unusual type of benign epithelial neoplasm. Most of the literature refers to dacryops of the lacrimal palpebral lobe, with orbital lobe involvement less frequent. The authors report a case of dacryops in a 10-year-old child involving the orbital lobe of the lacrimal gland. [ J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus . 2023;60(6):e79–e82.]
