The authors describe an unusual case of tick on the patient's eyelid. The ophthamologist considers the case as being benign. From the epidemiologic point of view it is necessary to consider the possibility of transmission of some infectious diseases by this mode. Ticks transmit the early summer meningocephalitis and Lym borreliosis. (Ref. 4.)
