Abstract
Mucus fishing syndrome is a rare condition that is characterized by increased mucus secretion and mechanical removal of mucus leading to a continuous mechanical trauma to the ocular surface. The mechanical removal of mucus results in ocular surface damage which leads to further increase of mucus production. Usually condition is characterized by conjunctival inflammation. Unlike the typical clinical presentation; we present a case with corneal ulcer and substance abuse with current diagnostic and treatment approaches.
