title: Eyelid metastasis from lung carcinoma.
abstract: A 74-year-old man presented with a 4-month history of swelling in the right upper lid. Biopsy of the lesion showed moderate to poorly differentiated invasive squamous cell carcinoma. He was recently diagnosed with squamous carcinoma of the lung with similar histology to the eyelid lesion. Eyelid metastases are a rare presentation of lung tumours.
