Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the application of the palpebral strip suspension on the outer side of the lower eyelid for moderate-to-severe iatrogenic lateral canthal deformities.Methods:From October 2019 to October 2020, patients with moderate to severe lateral canthal deformity caused by lateral canthoplasty were admitted to the Department of Medical Cosmetology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. They received lateral tarsal sling suspension of the lower eyelid. The improvement in lateral canthus shape, lateral angle position, blepharophimosis size and the lid bulb separation was observed and analyzed.Results:Seven female patients, aged from 23 to 48 years, with 14 eyes, were included. Complete correction of the canthal deformity was achieved in all the patients. During the follow-up period of more than 6 months, all patients had complete recovery of the external canthus shape and position, as well as symmetry of the bilateral lid fissure size, and improvement of the lid bulb separation without serious complications.Conclusions:The palpebral strip suspension on the outer side of the lower eyelid for moderate-to-severe iatrogenic lateral canthal deformities is easy to perform, with satisfactory postoperative result and few complications.
