Author(s):
Abstract:
Upper eyelid retraction i a common and characteristic feature of thyroid eye disease. In this study a new surgical technique for correction of lid retraction secondary to Grave's orbitopathy is described.
Sixteen eyes of 16 patients underwent surgical correction for lid retraction secondary to Grave's orbitopathy. In this procedure levator aponeurectomy was performed via conjunctival approach. Upper marginal reflex distance (MRD1) was measured before the surgery, one week, three months and six months after the surgery.
Pre-operative MRD1 (mean: 7.84mm) reduced significantly one week after surgery (mean: 3.59mm) (P
