Three-Year Outcomes of the Surgery for Trichiasis, Antibiotics to Prevent Recurrence Trial

Causes of Trichiasis and Distichiasis and Their Management with Carbon Dioxide Laser Ablation

“…49,50 Woreta et al found a 1.01-fold hazard ratio for age within 3 years. 51 Khandekar et al reported a 2.17-fold higher risk among patients aged older than 60 years compared with that among patients aged 40 to 60 years in all study patients, but no significant correlation with age in any surgical intervention subgroup. 52 However, all of these findings were based on patients living in trachoma-endemic areas.…”

“…This finding was compatible with those of previous research on different treatment modalities. 49,51 Therefore, a severity assessment for the probability of recurrence should be performed before carbon dioxide laser ablation.…”

Systematic review of the incidence of post-operative trichiasis in Africa

“…This was associated with increasing conjunctival inflammation at 4 years [ 23 ]. The STAR trial, however, was exceptional, reporting a cumulative incidence of post-operative trichiasis of only 12% (161/1322 patients) [ 19 – 21 ] in the 3 years after BLTR, with less post-operative trichiasis in the intervention group (OR 0.76; 95% CI: 0.54–1.07] – Fig. 4
