Abstract Blistering beetle dermatitis is an important dermatological disease of tropical countries. Although the clinical features are classical, little awareness amongst medical practitioners may cause difficulties in the diagnosis of this condition. Further, it may sometimes mimic an unrelated disease which can lead to delay in treatment causing prolonged suffering of the patient. We present a case of blistering beetle dermatitis that was initially misdiagnosed as a case of herpeszoster ophthalmicus. The case is presented to reinforce awareness on this dermatologicaldis-ease and discuss its atypical presentation and its management.
