Kimura disease (KD) is a rare chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. It usually presents with regional lymphadenopathy in the head and neck region and swelling of the salivary glands and subcutaneous tissues. Periocular involvement in KD is rare. We report a case of KD on the eyelid as a rare cause of eyelid masses.
