Abstract
The authors discuss the surgical correction of lower eyelid retraction in dysthyroid, socket, and blepharoplasty patients. Sixty-three patients underwent a lateral canthal tightening combined with a vertical lengthening of the posterior lamella using autogenous posterior auricular cartilage. The average follow-up was for 2 years. We propose this combined procedure as the surgery of choice in the treatment of lower eyelid retraction seen in these three groups of patients.
