title: A traumatic corneoscleral epithelial cyst.
abstract: We describe a case of a patient with a corneoscleral epithelial cyst originating from a traumatic scleral rupture. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) were used to diagnose this rare condition. A lamellar corneoscleral graft was performed with histopathological examination of the excised cyst. The treatment of corneoscleral epithelial cysts is discussed.
