Abstract

Anthrax is a rare infection that is transmitted to humans from animals or animal products. In its cutaneous form it may produce lesions of the eyelids which can lead to cicatricization and ectropion. Exophthalmos, optic atrophy and panophthalmitis have also been reported. A case of anthrax affecting the eyelid of a patient seen by the author in Kabul, Afghanistan, is presented.
