Abstract

The eyelids provide structural support for the globe and play an essential role in protecting and lubricating the eye. Trauma, tumor resection, or congenital defects may compromise eyelid function. The goals of eyelid reconstruction are to restore the function of the eyelids and lacrimal drainage apparatus, provide adequate protection for the globe, and achieve reasonable cosmetic results.
