摘要:
Ptosis may develop after cataract surgery because of a dehiscence of the levator aponeurosis. A series of patients undergoing entropion repair was examined in order to determine the mechanism of entropion and the correlation with cataract surgery. It is suggested that involu-tional senile entropion may develop related to cataract surgery, on the same basis as ptosis, due to disinsertion of the capsulopalpebral fascia. It is suggested that the cataract surgeon should examine the patient closely for pre-operative entropion to prevent or anticipate the development of frank entropion after the cataract surgery.
