(A) Left lower eyelid. Loss of lashes, conjunctival injection, and meibomian capping can be seen. The disruption of the mucocutaneous junction is seen across the eyelid margin. Middle lamellar shortening secondary to tarsal "melt" can be slightly appreciated from the figure.
(B) Periodic acid-Schiff, magnification x100. Shows cells in the epidermis with dark cytoplasm that may represent "corps ronds" cells seen in Darier disease (arrow).
