Correction of severe upper eyelid entropion.

Lid splitting procedures have been described a long time ago. Despite repeated descriptions by various authors, the method is not widely known. We use a bare-tarsus technique, omitting any grafting. In addition, we found radial incisions at the nasal and temporal edges of the anterior lamella advantageous, as the often superimposed blepharospasm is abolished by the weakening of the tarsal part of the orbicularis muscle. Also, there is then less tendency for the recessed anterior lamella to creep back down to the lid margin.
