Human bite injury to the eyelid is extremely rare and poses a significant challenge in surgical reconstruction. We report an extremely rare case of human bite injury to the eyelid in a 43-year-old male with approximately 60% full thickness loss of the upper eyelid and 80% to 90% full thickness loss of the lower eyelid and its successful reconstruction using the local advancement cheek flap.

There are several options available for upper eyelid reconstruction that depend on the extent of involvement of the anterior and posterior lamella. Knowledge of the anatomy will ensure that in addition to the creation of an aesthetically acceptable eyelid reconstruction, a functional upper lid will be restored. The purpose of this article is to outline the anatomy of the eyelid, to analyze the ...

BACKGROUND The challenge with the surgical repair of upper eyelid retraction is to obtain a more predictable and satisfactory postoperative eyelid contour and height, and to minimise the need for further surgery. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on all patients treated surgically for eyelid retraction at Moorfields Eye Hospital over a 13 year period. RESULTS In this study good...

in order to study the effect of pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides on chickpea growth, nodulation and biological nitrogen fixation, a greenhouse experiment was conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010. experimental type was completely randomized design with four replications. treatments included pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides application in 1200, 720 and 75 ...

Aging of the lower eyelid involves a complex series of anatomic and physiologic changes that occur over time. Rejuvenation of the lower eyelid complex must systemically address the various contributions of soft tissue laxity, pseudoherniation of orbital fat, and loss of periorbital volume. This article outlines the evolution of our approach to lower eyelid blepharoplasty with a specific focus o...

PURPOSE To compare functional and surgical outcomes of a subperiosteal midface lift with and without the placement of a hard palate mucosal graft (HPMG) in patients with lower eyelid retraction. DESIGN Retrospective, comparative, interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-four patients with lower eyelid retractions who underwent surgery at the Jules Stein Eye Institute in a 5-year peri...

We describe three patients with spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) and marked eyelid retraction: A 33-year-old woman with ataxia, pyramidal signs and eyelid retraction; genetic test confirmed SCA1 (Figure A). A 41-year-old man with ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, neuropathy and eyelid retraction; genetic test confirmed SCA2 (Figure B). A 68-year-old man with ataxia, neuropathy, nystagmus and eyelid retracti...

In five cases, a simplified anterior tarsal resection corrected complicated upper eyelid blepharoptosis and contour abnormalities. One case of residual blepharoptosis after levator muscle resection was corrected by resecting an amount of tarsus equal to the desired amount of correction. Two cases of upper eyelid blepharoptosis resulting from overcorrected levator muscle recession were corrected...

Differences in eyelid structure are well described in the literature with respect to the Asian eyelid, but discussion of differences in eyelid structure between the other races is scarce. Most of the literature focuses on distinctions between “double” and “single” eyelids. Other clinical and surgical considerations are the presence of epicanthi and palpebral fissure slant. By understanding raci...
