Abstract Within the past four years I have seen 40 private patients because of a dermatitis of the eyelids.

Investigation was made by (a) a carefully taken history; (b) patch tests with suspected substances; (c) elimination of suspected substances and observation of results, and (d) examination of other portions of the body, especially of the hands and the face, for small patches of dermatitis.
