Jessner's lymphocytic infiltration of the skin is a benign, unusual skin disorder with unknown etiology. It mostly affects middle-aged adults and very rarely occurs in children. It is typically localized on the head, neck, upper back. The eruption resolves spontaneously after months or a few years but can usually recur in several years. Benign hyperplastic lymphoid pathologies, mainly cutaneous lupus erythematosis with quite similar skin lesions, and malignant lymphoma should be considered in differential diagnosis. Treatment of Jessner's lymphocytic infiltration is unsatisfactory and a variety of empirical treatments with limited success has been tried. In this study, we aimed to report a rare case of Jessner's lymphocytic infiltration on and around the eyelid of a thirty-nine-year-old male patient.
