A Case of Chancre of the Eyelid

Adhar Chandra Goswami, a Hindu male, aged about 32 years, came to the E}7e Infirmary, Medical College Hospital, on the 3rd January 1897, complaining of pain and redness in the right eye. Previous history.?The history which could be gathered from him was interesting. About 10 days ago, a member of his family had phimosis with chancres; he used to dress him daily. One day, while he was accompanying him to the hospital, he had to dress his friend's sores in the way; while engaged in dressing inside the carriage, some dust went inside his eye and he instantly rubbed his e}7e with his right hand. About three days after this he noticed some pain and redness about the outer corner and lower lid of the right eye.
