ABSTRACT
Rhinosporidiosis is endemic in India, Sri Lanka, and parts of East Africa and South America; sporadic cases are reported in other countries. We report on five patients from eastern Nepal with oculosporidiosis. The conjunctiva was involved in two patients and the lacrimal sac was involved in three patients; treatment was by simple total excision of the conjunctivalgrowth (patients with conjunctival involvement) and by dacryocystectomy (patients with lacrimal sac involvement). This is the second case report from Nepal.
