Abstract:
In this report, we want to propose new one-dimensional parameters for eye-image correction through manipulations of lid elevation. The eye ball exposure area could be divided to three subdivisional areas: iris, medial sclera and lateral sclera. Ratios among these subdivisional square measures of eye ball exposure are the most important and effective factors to present for the eye-image. But, for the surgeons, it is not easy to measure this areas. So we came to propose paramedian widths, mid-scleral widths. We suggest several compositions of one-dimensional measures which would represent for eye-image like the ratios of square measures of subdivisional areas. However, there would be no exact rule in this ratios because there have been no exact rule also in the beautiful face, they would be useful rules for eye-image. It is entirely up to every surgeon to decide the rules of these parameters.
