OBJECTIVE: Heavy brows in Chow Chow and Shar-Pei dogs can be associated with pseudoptosis and trichiasis-entropion of the upper eyelids, causing vision impairment and ocular discomfort. This study describes the outcomes of brow rhytidectomy ± Stades-like procedure to address these anatomical abnormalities.
METHODS: Retrospective medical records review (2019-2022).
RESULTS: Twenty-seven dogs (n = 15 Chow Chow, n = 12 Shar-Peis) were included, aged 1.9 ± 1.5 years (0.5-6.5 years). Presenting complaints included recurrent episodes of ocular inflammation (n = 13, 48.1%), blepharospasm (n = 10, 37.0%), corneal ulcers (n = 8, 29.6%), entropion (n = 6, 22.2%), and impaired vision (n = 4, 14.8%). Brow skin was removed as follows: (i) First incision parallel and 10-15 mm dorsal to upper lid, slightly extending beyond medial/lateral canthi; (ii) second incision forming an arc with its apex 15-35 mm dorsal to the first incision; and (iii) standard two or three layers closure. In 22/27 dogs, a Stades-like procedure was performed by removing a 2-4 mm strip of skin above eyelid margin and leaving it to heal by secondary intention (no sutures). At last recheck (follow-up 354.5 ± 187.8 days), 19/27 dogs (70.4%) had an adequate eyelid conformation, 7/27 dogs (25.9%) were considered under-corrected, and 1/27 dogs (3.7%) was over-corrected. Most owners (81.5%) were satisfied with the surgical results. Most cases (96.3%) had no recurrence of the clinical signs during the entire follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: Brow rhytidectomy ± Stades-like procedure provide good cosmetic and clinical outcomes in Chow Chow and Shar-Pei dogs, although under correction may occur in severely affected dogs and with advancing time.

OBJECTIVE: This report presents the results of using cryopreserved umbilical amniotic membrane (cUAM) as an alternative mucosal graft for ocular surface reconstruction in cases of anophthalmic socket contracture (ASC), cicatricial entropion (CE), and conjunctival-scleral defects.
METHODS: The study included patients who underwent non-commercial implantation of cUAM grafts (prepared by corneal banking methods) for ASC, CE, conjunctival defect, and scleral melting. The main success criteria for this study were the comfortable fitting of the ocular prosthesis in ASC patients, the natural eyelid position in CE patients, and the degree of conjunctivalisation in melting patients.
RESULTS: cUAM transplantation was performed in 2 patients who could not use a prosthetic eye due to conjunctival contracture, 2 patients with CE, and 1 patient with conjunctival defect and 1 patient with conjunctival-scleral melting. The primary outcome was achieved in 83.3% (5/6) of patients. In one patient with CE, partial healing was achieved due to the persistence of CE in the medial upper eyelid.
CONCLUSIONS: cUAM is a viable alternative to mucosal grafting for reconstructing the bulbar and palpebral conjunctival surface, fornix, and orbit, with reduced donor morbidity and shorter surgical time. Its regenerative ability allows for tissue defect healing and improves cosmetic appearance through epithelialization within weeks.

<b><br>Introduction:</b> The imbalance of external and internal forces acting on the lower eyelid can result in entropion and ectropion, both of which cause ocular irritation and loss of proper eye protection. Potential complications of untreated cases include recurrent inflammation of the conjunctiva and cornea, conjunctival neovascularization, corneal abrasion or perforation, and ultimately even loss of vision. Although various surgical techniques are used to address this problem, their long-term outcome and effectiveness are still under discussion. </br> <b><br>Aim:</b> To evaluate outcomes of surgery for entropion and ectropion, including a modified Wheeler\'s method for entropion correction.</br> <b><br>Methods:</b> A non-comparative study (prospective and retrospective groups) included 100 patients operated on in two university hospitals\' plastic surgery departments for lower eyelid entropion or ectropion, following formal ethics approval. The prospective group included 50 patients assessed preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. The retrospective group was comprised of 50 patients (2012-2018), whose preoperative documentation and clinical examinations were analyzed. The main outcome measures were change between pre- and postoperative patient-reported symptoms (VAS scale), ectropion/entropion grading scale (EGS/EnGS), quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF), and occurrence of complications.</br> <b><br>Results:</b> The differences in the severity of all symptoms before and after surgery evaluated with the VAS scale were statistically significant in both groups (p <0.05). We observed 6 recurrences (12%) in the prospective group and 9 (18%) in the retrospective group, with minor complications. Very good functional and esthetic postoperative results were confirmed in 70% (79) of the whole group and in 13 patients (81.3%) treated with the modified Wheeler\'s method. In the prospective group, the Mann- Whitney U test for dependent variables revealed significant improvement in the somatic, psychological, and environmental domains, with no significant change in the social relationships domain.</br> <b><br>Conclusions:</b> The results following entropion/ectropion surgery prove the effectiveness of the methods used. Complementing them with the modified Wheeler\'s method brought an increase in the number of very good outcomes. Surgery of lower eyelid malposition contributed to reduced symptoms and improved quality of life. The rates of postoperative sequelae were low.</br>.

Entropion, a common malposition of the eyelid, can lead to trichiasis and corneal damage. This article presents a clinical case in which, following initial surgery to correct entropion, the use of a dermatological punch was chosen to definitively eliminate persistent trichiasis. This relatively unknown yet effective approach proved to be a quick and straightforward alternative with positive outcomes, emphasizing the importance of considering innovative approaches to recurrent challenges in clinical practice.

Two patients with floppy eyelid syndrome presented with severe eye pain and foreign body sensation after recent levator aponeurosis advancement. The examination in both patients was notable for entropion of the upper eyelid, and upper lid eversion revealed deformity of the tarsus in both patients. Surgical revision with full-thickness horizontal tarsotomy and limited excision of the abnormal tarsus corrected the deformity. The authors propose a mechanism for this phenomenon and a modification of surgical technique that may prevent this complication.

OBJECTIVE: To compare stab and eyelid crease incision techniques in revision frontalis sling surgeries using silicone rods.
METHODS: This retrospective study involved 52 eyes in 48 consecutive pediatric patients who underwent revision frontalis sling surgery between 2008 and 2019. All primary surgeries were performed by making eyelid crease incisions and suturing of silicone rods onto the tarsal plates. The revision surgeries were performed by either making stab incisions over the eyelid through which to pass the silicone rods (group A), or by refixing the same or a new silicone rod to the tarsal plate (group B). The surgical results were compared.
RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 22.4 months (range, 6-62 months) and the mean age of the patients was 6.1 years (range, 1-16 years). There were 28 female and 20 male patients. Surgical success was achieved in 23 of 28 patients (82.1%) in group A, and 12 of 24 patients (50.0%) in group B. The difference between the groups was statistically significant (p = 0.012). Superficial punctate epithelial defects were detected in six group A patients (21.4%) and seven group B patients (29.1%). In group B, lid hematoma occurred in three patients (12.5%) and entropion occurred in three patients (12.5%). The silicone rods were removed from two eyes, and entropion spontaneously resolved in one eye with close follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS: Using the stab incision technique increases revision frontalis sling surgery success rates when primary surgeries are performed using eyelid crease incisions and suturing silicone rods to the tarsal plates in children.

Surgical correction is the typical treatment for an entropion. However, considerable anesthetic risk exists for a subset of patients, particularly rabbits and guinea pigs. In a high number of these cases, this represents the main reason for reluctance to treat an entropion. The following report describes the case of a 9-year-old rabbit with a superficial cornea defect and a mild entropion of the upper eyelid. Eversion of the eyelid from a mild entropion to a normal position was attained by the subdermal injection of a hyaluronic acid filler (Alayna SG 24 Distinct®, BSC Medical Devices GmbH, Munich, Germany) without necessitating general anesthesia or sedation. Following a period of 273 days, a relapse occurred which was subsequently successfully treated with a repeat injection. An entropion of the contralateral eye became evident during the follow-up period and was also effectively managed by a single subdermal filler injection. In the reported case, treatment with subdermal hyaluronic acid injection proved to be well tolerated and efficacious.
Das Entropium wird in der Regel chirurgisch therapiert. Gerade bei älteren Patienten und vor allem bei kleinen Heimtieren besteht häufig ein nicht unerhebliches Narkoserisiko, welches häufig zur Ablehnung der chirurgischen Therapie von Seiten der Besitzer führen kann. Das im Folgenden vorgestellte, 9 Jahre alte Kaninchen litt unter einem superfiziellen Hornhautulkus und einem Oberlidentropium. Die Lidstellung wurde mittels subdermaler Hyaluronsäureinjektion (Alayna SG 24 Distinct®, BSC Medical Devices GmbH, München, Deutschland) ohne Allgemeinanästhesie oder Sedierung erfolgreich korrigiert. Nach 273 Tagen machte ein Rezidiv eine erneute Injektion notwendig, die ebenfalls erfolgreich die Lidstellung korrigierte. Ein Entropium am kontralateralen Auge während des Beobachtungszeitraums machte auch hier eine Therapie notwendig. Die Anwendung von subdermal injizierter Hyaluronsäure zeigte sich bei diesem Patienten als insgesamt komplikationsfrei und erfolgreich.

To review and summarize a comprehensive synopsis of surgery of the eyelid in thyroid eye disease (TED).
A PubMed search for specific eyelid manifestations of TED was performed. Studies reporting surgical management of these were reviewed, along with the author\'s own experience.
The most common eyelid manifestations of TED include eyelid retraction, blepharoptosis, entropion, and epiblepharon, with most of them requiring surgical intervention. The correction of eyelid retraction has received maximum attention, with several surgical techniques that have stood the test of time. Blepharoptosis in TED that requires surgical intervention is usually aponeurotic. Entropion and Epiblepharon are rare in TED, and may resolve spontaneously, or following orbital decompression.
Retraction is the commonest eyelid manifestation of TED, with multiple surgical options available for its correction. Blepharoptosis, entropion, and epiblepharon are rare eyelid findings in TED, that may occasionally require surgical correction.

OBJECTIVE: Lower eyelid malposition can be a complication following orbital floor fracture surgeries. We present our incidence of lower eyelid malposition from a large case series of orbital floor fracture repairs using the \'swinging eyelid\' approach and \'hang back\' technique.
METHODS: A retrospective review of all orbital fracture surgeries at our institution from November 2011 to March 2021 was performed. Primary outcomes included the incidence of lower eyelid malposition by category, the average time to presentation after primary surgery, and reoperation rates among cases with lower eyelid complications.
RESULTS: A total of 438 cases that involved repair of the fractured orbital floor were identified. Six patients (1.37 %) developed lower eyelid malposition following primary orbital floor repair. Two patients (0.46 %) developed reverse ptosis of the lower eyelid. Two patients (0.46 %) returned with lower lid cicatricial ectropion. One patient (0.23 %) had postoperative lower eyelid retraction. One patient (0.23 %) had postoperative lower eyelid cicatricial entropion. No cases of lower lid flattening, lower eyelid fat flattening, or eyelid notch was noted. All patients with lower eyelid malposition underwent additional surgeries except one patient with reverse ptosis (83.3 %). The average time to the presentation of postoperative complications from the surgery date was 292.8 days (range = 49 days to 3.5 years).
CONCLUSIONS: Lower eyelid malposition after orbital floor repair is a known complication that can be decreased by employing the \'swinging eyelid\' with a preseptal approach and closure by the \'hang back\' technique.
