Eyelid Scars

Tissue of the eyelid which are everted or pulled down by (a) scar(s) after accident.

An ectropion with a contorted ridge of the eyelid caused by a scar after an accident, often after vulnerations caused by a windscreen, can lead to problems with worsening of seeing. If the upper eyelids are involved or if there is a problem of the eyelid-closure, complications are even more frequent.

Aesthetical alterations aggravate the situation accessorily.

If there is no acute indication for an early revision, one should first use salves against hypertrophic reactions of the tissue.

After an aggressive development of scar-building within the affected region fades away, a reconstructive surgery (with the chance of a good result) gets possible.
