A 3-month-old, female Persian cat was presented with sclera mass. The mass was detected after cat’s squealsduring the playing with a dog before 2 days. On ophthalmic examination, a 2 × 5 mm dark purple colored raised masswas observed 1 mm behind the limbus in the right eye. Anterior chamber was filled with blood and epithelial defectwas detected at 2 o’clock in the right central cornea. After general anesthesia, resection of the protruded iris wasperformed with iris scissors and bipolar cautery. Ruptured sclera and conjunctiva were closed with simple interruptedand simple continuous suture, respectively.
