A 22‑year‑old male presented with fullness in the lateral aspect of the right upper lid and swelling in right lateral canthal area since 6 years. The swelling has progressed minimally since then. He did not seek any medical treatment partly because the swelling was not grossly visible from outside, and partly he did not have any pain. There was no history of trauma. On examination an 8 mm × 4 mm translucent bluish‑purple nodular soft cystic swelling with a hyperemic swollen conjunctival base was found in the palpebral portion of the lacrimal gland [Figure 1]. He had two transparent cysts in the palpebral portion of the lacrimal gland in the left eye as well. These were nontender with no associated involvement of adjacent structures or signs of inflammation. There was no preauricular or submandibular lymphadenopathy. Slit lamp examination both eyes showed normal anterior (cornea, anterior chamber, lens) and posterior segments.
