title: Ophthalmic nodular fasciitis in the dog.
abstract: Ophthalmic nodular fasciitis in 5 dogs was often manifested as subconjunctival masses of variable growth rate. Each mass was raised, pink, and hyperemic. Five masses involved the bulbar conjunctiva, and 2 masses involved the eyelids. Local excision of each mass successfully resolved the condition.
