Abstract
A case is reported in which a simple anterior lamellar repositioning procedure was used successfully to repair an upper lid entropion associated with a horizontal tarsal link. This obviates the need for the more complex and destructive procedures which have previously been described for the treatment of this condition.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
