A 74-year-old male patient came to medical consultation presenting a hyperpigmented stain near the lower left eyelid edge, with varying colors, between different shades of brown; the biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of lentigo maligna. Its location on the eyelid edge is rare. There is some divergence in the literature regarding the best method for its treatment. Non-surgical therapeutic options, such as imiquimod, have been suggested, as well as different variants in surgical management and required margins. In the case described, it was chosen to manage with conservative margins, preserving, the functionality of the area.
