ABSTRACT
Pthiriasis palpebrarum is a rare disease in which crab lice infest the eyelashes. It can cause pruritic lid margins, and it is difficult to diagnose and treat. We diagnosed and managed a case of pthiriasis palpebrarum in the right upper eyelid of a 35 month-old male child. We removed the lice and nits by pulling with fine forceps using dermoscopy. After treatment, all lice and nits had been eradicated without recurrence. We suggest that this is an effective, safe method for diagnosis and treatment of pthiriasis palpebrarum.
