A 72-year-old man with history of chronic lymphocytic lymphoma presented with a tender, ulcerated cutaneous eyelid lesion. Excisional biopsy revealed a diagnosis of eosinophilic dermatosis of malignancy. This rare paraneoplastic eruption is associated with hematologic malignancies and characterized histopathologically by lymphocytic infiltration accompanied by numerous eosinophils. To our knowledge, eosinophilic dermatosis of malignancy involving the eyelid has not been previously reported.
