RESUMO
Congenital ectropion is commonly associated with lamellar ichthyosis. Severe eyelid ectropion may cause corneal exposure, keratopathy, and permanent corneal scarring. We report a neonate with severe, bilateral, congenital ectropion and eclabium managed using oral retinoids. Both corneas were protected with topical antibiotics and lubricating eyedrops and eye ointments. At 12-month follow-up, the child was doing well, with no ectropion or corneal opacity.
