    Limbal squamous cell carcinoma is uncommon worldwide. Its early stages of presentation may look like the commoner limbal mass, pterygium or actinic keratosis. We report a case of invasive squamous cell carcinoma of limbusin a 45-year female patient. A high index of suspicion is required to prevent delay in the diagnosis of an invasive condition that can destroy the eye completely[1]. A rare case of squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva is presented here. This highlights the significance of aggressive management of such cases surgically and the use of adjuants per operatively to prevent recurrence.
