An anatomical etiology of congenital eyelid eversion.

Congenital eversion of the eyelids is a rare condition which has never had a proven anatomic etiology. A one-day-old male presented with severe congenital eversion of both upper eyelids. Medical therapy was unsuccessful. At surgery, adipose tissue was found beneath the tendon of the levator palpebrae and extended anterior to the tarsus because the orbital septum was not attached inferiorly. The defect was repaired. In this case, non-attachment of the orbital septum may have induced eversion of the upper eyelids.

Marcus Gunn jaw winking and Duane's retraction syndrome.

A three-month-old female presented with the unusual findings of Marcus Gunn Jaw Winking Phenomenon and Duane's Retraction Syndrome in the same eye. In considering suggested etiologies for these two disorders, a misdirection of peripheral innervation would account for both these entities co-existing. In reviewing the ophthalmic literature, the association of these disorders was first described around the turn of the century but much less in recent years.
