Introduction: Amyloidosis is a rare disease resulting from extracellular accumulation of abnormal insoluble protein fibrils. AmylUidosis classified into two types primary(AL) and secondary(AA). Primary amyloidosis(AL) is a multiple myeloma associated disease. The primary localized cutaneus amyloidosis (PLCA) is a kind of of primary amyloidosis with isolated amyloid deposition in the skin and mucous membrane. Case discussion: We described a case of PLCA with a long history of palpebral and gingival involvement. There are a few treatment modalities for these groups of patients such as local therapy or systemic medical therapy. Conclusion: Although our patient has recieved multiple lines of immunosuppressive treatment during long period of time, the disease progressed continously and disturbed her visual field.
