Purpose:

Allergic conjunctival granuloma, firstly described by Ashton and Cook, is a cause of conjunctival ocular lesions. Previous reports are available from different geographic regions; but none of them was from Middle East. In this article, a case of allergic conjunctival granuloma is presented.

Methods:

A twenty-year-old white female, with bilateral multiple conjunctival granulomatous lesions, was presented with tearing, photophobia, severe itching, and eye redness. The authors made an eye drop by vial of Taclrolimous (0.005%) and the patient took it QID in her OD while the OS was put on placebo. Thereafter, the signs and symptoms started to relief dramatically and lesions were removed in her right eye soon after while the left eye was inflamed.

Results:

the presented case was a young female with recurrent bilateral allergic conjunctival granuloma, and with the best of our knowledge, she was the first case managed by Tacrolimous eye drop with a good therapeutic response

Conclusion:

Topical Tacrolimus could be used to used to treat Allergic Conjunctival Granuloma, However further follow-ups are required to establish the safety of Tacrolimous in similar cases.
