ABSTRACT
Lower lid retraction can be caused by many etiologies but few require surgical intervention except for cosmetic reasons and exposure deratitis due to lagophthalmos. We report three lower lid retraction patients who underwent lower lid reconstruction was due to congenital etiology or was secondary to excessive inferior rectus muscle recession or lower lid blepharoplasty due to orbital neurofibroma. All three patients found their results satisfactory and showed no severe side effects during the follow-up period. It is suggested that the use of scleral spacer combined with lateral canthoplasty be an effective surgical procedure for correction of lower lid retraction.
