摘要

We present a case of a woman with epiphora secondary to complete nasolacrimal duct obstruction due to granulomatous inflammation around pigmented, birefringent foreign bodies, consistent with cosmetics. History is critical when evaluating epiphora to differentiate an innate melanocytic process, such as melanoma, from exogenous sources such as cosmetics on histopathology.
