Not just a chalazion-focal eyelid and orbital infection with Saksaenea vasiformis in an immunocompetent child.

We present the case of a 2-year-old immunocompetent boy who presented with subacute right-sided orbital cellulitis due to Saksaenea vasiformis infection. Initial differential diagnoses included chalazion and localized soft tissue malignancy. There was no history of trauma. Immunological review and investigations were unremarkable. He was treated with a total of 3 months of antifungal therapy. Following resolution, he had two episodes of spontaneously resolving localized eyelid erythema at 2 and 8 months.
