Abstract
Purpose: To introduce a method of correcting lower eyelid epiblepharon with severe epicanthal fold combined with minimal incision of medial epicanthoplasty (Hiraga method) and to report its clinical outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent surgery for lower eyelid epiblepharon and minimal incision of medial epicanthus from January 2015 and January 2019. Seventy-eight eyes of 39 patients were analyzed for surgical outcomes, subjective symptoms, recurrence, and complications for more than six months of the follow-up period.
Results: A total of 39 patients (14 male, 25 female) were included in the analysis. The mean patient age was 8.4 ¡¾ 4.3 years, and the mean postoperative follow-up was 14 ¡¾ 5.2 months. Eyelid shape and function were well maintained in 39 patients (100%), with no recurrence during follow-up.
Conclusions: For patients with lower eyelid epiblepharon with severe medial epicanthal fold, lower eyelid epiblepharon with a minimal incision of medial epicanthoplasty (Hiraga method) is a simple surgical technique to prevent recurrence of medial cilia touch, showing successful results without complications.
