A 50 day old Rottweiler pup was presented with a swelling on left ventral periorbital region with a missing normal left eye ball since birth. The pup was active and alert in behavior, with a normal general appearance, normal vitals and apparent aphakia of left eye but good vision in his right eye. Ultrasonography revealed a fluid filled mass in the ventral periorbital region with no visible ocular structures. An exploratory surgery of the cavity revealed a cyst and an eyeball beneath with attachments within the periorbital cavity. The cystic contents were aspirated and cyst was excised. Pup had an uneventful recovery with good physical and social development as his peers.
