Investigation of exophthalmos and blood‐colored discharge from the left ventral punctum in a dog was consistent with a conjunctival cyst in the orbit. 3‐D prints of the cyst and surrounding facial bones identified a successful transconjunctival approach without an orbitotomy and patency of the left lacrimal duct was reestablished.
