A 51-year-old obese man with a history of nocturnal upper eyelid eversion secondary to floppy eyelids presented with a Staphylococcus aureus corneal ulcer. No papillary conjunctivitis was present. The corneal ulcer was treated successfully. This case demonstrates the importance of ruling out spontaneous nocturnal lid eversion as a cause for unexplained ocular surface pathology and emphasizes the fact that the floppy eyelid syndrome may present in the absence of classic papillary conjunctivitis.
