The onset of oncocytic neoplasms in the ocular area is exceptional. A rare case of oxyphil cell adenoma of the lacrimal caruncle in an 81-year-old woman is presented. The anatomo-clinical profile of this benign small tumor is drawn up: a slowly growing tumor, generally occurring in the caruncle of elderly women, which is characterized by a uniform population of epithelial cells with eosinophilic finely-granular cytoplasm containing large numbers of mitochondria. The histogenetic problem of this tumor is briefly discussed.
