INGROWN EYELASH

PALPEBRAL CONJUNCTIVA FOREIGN BODY

A young patient came into the clinic complaining of light sensitivity and pain in his eye.  When staining the cornea a superior abrasion was seen with associated foreign body tracks.  Examination of the everted superior lid revealed an embedded foreign body on the palpebral conjunctiva. The foreign body was removed and topical antibiotics were given with successful resolution.
