ABSTRACT
Ectropion is characterized by eversion of the eyelid margin and exposure of the cornea and conjunctiva. This leaves the inner eyelid surface exposed and prone to irritation, and in severe cases, poor eye closure. Ectropion can occur for several reasons including congenital malformations, trauma, burns, anti-cancer medications, allergies, and inappropriate eyelid surgery. Surgical treatments usually include local flaps or skin grafts, depending on the severity of the defect. We present a case of successful cicatricial upper eyelid ectropion correction using a dermofat graft and an anti-adhesive agent (Guardix-Sol) after the wide release of tethering scar tissue.
