“…They also mentioned that results did not correlate to the type of laxity nor the degree of ectropion (20). Raus and colleges concluded that repair of early to intermediate ectropion of the lacrimal punctum using the Raus-Garito clamp has a good functional and cosmetic outcome (21) Argon laser on the lower medial palpebral conjunctiva has many advantages. It is a simple, easy, and quick technique that can be performed under topical anesthesia in the outpatient clinic.…”

Purpose: To describe a new, simple and minimally invasive technique for correction of mild medial lower lid ectropion with punctal evrsion and measuring the efficacy of the technique by measuring the tear film meniscus pre and post argon laser treatment using imagej software.Methods: This study included 23 eyes, 19 patients with lower eyelid punctal eversion. All patients were treated by argon laser of lower medial conjunctiva. Tear film thickness was assessed using imagej software pre and post argon laser treatment.Results: There was a highly significant difference between before and after argon laser treatment as regarding the height of tear film which was found to be significantly lower after argon laser treatment compared to before it (81.1pixels versus 193.1pixels respectively) (p< 0.001). Conclusion: In conclusion, argon laser to lower medial palpebral conjunctiva is a simple, easy, safe, and effective procedure which can be applied as a sole treatment in early cases of punctal eversion with no or mild medial canthal tendon laxity.Clinical Trials Registration no clinical trial registration.

Purpose To describe a simple and minimally invasive technique using double-frequency YAG laser for correction of mild medial lower eyelid ectropion with punctal eversion and assess the efficacy of the technique by measuring the tear film meniscus pre- and post-laser treatment using imageJ software. Methods This study included 23 eyes of 19 patients with lower eyelid ectropion with punctal eversion. All patients were treated by double-frequency YAG laser applied to lower medial conjunctiva. Tear film thickness was assessed using imageJ software pre- and post-argon laser treatment. Results There was a highly significant change detected after argon laser treatment as regarding the mean of the height of tear film which was found to be significantly lower after argon laser treatment compared to before it (81.1 pixels versus 193.1 pixels, respectively) (P < 0.001). Conclusion Double-frequency YAG laser applied to lower medial palpebral conjunctiva is a simple, easy, safe, and effective procedure which can be used as a solo treatment in early cases of punctal eversion with no or mild medial canthal tendon laxity.
