An external hordeolum is an acute, suppurative inflammation of the glands of Zeis and sweat glands or hair follicles most commonly caused by staphylococci, usually in the setting of a chronic blepharitis.(1) We report a case of a boy with unilateral multiple recurrent hordeola in association with selective IgM deficiency.
