Ophthalmic Gallery
Over time with age, the ligament supporting the eyelid to the orbital rim can weaken resulting in eyelid laxity. This may cause the eyelid to turn inwards, called entropion, or the lid may turn outwards which is called ectropion.
Entropion
Once an entropion has developed, the eyelashes then can come in contact with the corneal surface. This can make the eye feel very uncomfortable causing excessive watering, red-eye or even permanent corneal scarring and reduction in vision. An ophthalmologist will carefully review your eyelids and examine the corneal surface. Treatment involves surgical repair under local anaesthesia by a specialist. After surgery, symptoms resolve very quickly.
Ectropion
Eyelid ectropion can be very obvious, with the lower lid becoming very red and inflamed. This also leads to exposure of the corneal surface and can cause a red eye, recurrent watering and ocular infections. Ectropion can also cause a failure of tears to drain properly to the lacrimal punctum thus leading to excessive watering. A careful examination of the eyelids, eye and lacrimal system is required and a surgical plan for repair can be made. The procedure is performed under light anaesthesia.

Testimonials
I had a procedure at the Cadogan Clinic. From my first consultation, my surgeon was honest, straight forward, and precise. All the details and expectations of the surgery were fully explained, along with the after care. I am still in recovery, but the results already look fantastic; they delivered on all the promises that he made to me.
Three weeks ago I had advanced fat transfer surgery and I am over the moon with the results. My whole wellbeing has been uplifted and I am so much more confident and happy with myself. Thank you to the Clinic and my surgeon for their fantastic work and expertise
I wanted to say a big thank you to the Cadogan Clinic, I am so happy with the results from my surgery. I can’t thank my patient advisor enough for being my support throughout my journey.
