This study presents two unusual ophthalmic cases: an epibulbar tumor and Toxocara Canis infection. Diagnosis was challenging, with surgery effective for the tumor but laser therapy needed for the parasitic lesions.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Parasitology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Presents two challenging ophthalmic cases with unusual clinical presentations and difficult etiological diagnoses.
  • Highlights the complexities in diagnosing epibulbar tumors and Toxocara Canis ocular infections.

Observation:

  • Case 1: Patient with an epibulbar tumor exhibiting unusual ophthalmoscopic images and clinical evolution.
  • Case 2: Patient diagnosed with Toxocara Canis, also presenting with atypical ophthalmoscopic findings and clinical course.

Findings:

  • Surgical intervention proved effective for the epibulbar tumor.
  • Antiparasitic treatment for Toxocara Canis did not halt the progression of chorioretinal lesions, necessitating laser therapy.

Implications:
