ABSTRACT
A 40-year-old man presented with recurrent ocular surface masses in his left eye persisting for over a year. Despite undergoing resection of the conjunctival mass and receiving anti-inflammatory treatment at another hospital, the mass reappeared within a week post-surgery. Over the past 6 months, the mass gradually increased in size, accompanied by a decline in vision. Following conjunctival mass excision combined with amniotic membrane transplantation at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, histopathological examination revealed a fungal infection of the conjunctiva, resulting in a diagnosis of fungal conjunctivitis and conjunctival granuloma in the left eye. The patient received systemic antifungal medications and local therapy, resulting in a stable condition with no recurrence of the mass.
