A middle-aged male presented to the Eye OPD with complaints of right eye foreign body sensation, pain, redness, watering for 10 days. Anterior segment examination revealed a hair in the punctum which was removed easily with atraumatic forceps. Patient was prescribed topical antibiotic eye drops and lubricants and followed up after one week. Hair in punctum is a rare phenomenon wherein eyelashes which are shed like regular hair are carried away by reflex lacrimal secretion and sucked into the lower punctum due to negative pressure created in the canaliculus secondary to eye blink. We describe a case of hair in punctum which was removed by a simple procedure, relieving the patient of his symptoms.
