Purpose: This review and case report address ligneous conjunctivitis (LC), a rare ocular condition caused by plasminogen deficiency type 1 (PLGD-1), which manifests as wood-like fibrin-rich membranes on the palpebral conjunctiva.

Methods: We present a clinical LC case alongside a narrative review of published cases, etiology, and treatment approaches.
