Lateral Canthoplasty Reconstruction

The outer corners were unnaturally angled and over-opened, with associated eye irritation.

Reconstruction closed the over-opened outer corners into a more defined shape. Lower canthoplasty rounded the lower-lid contour while helping preserve eye-opening size.

Previous lateral and lower canthoplasty had resulted in re-adhesion and squared-off outer corners.

Lateral canthoplasty reconstruction and lower canthoplasty revision restored a more natural outer-corner contour.

After lateral canthoplasty, the outer corners appeared open and squared off.

Reconstruction restored a more pointed outer-corner contour. Lower canthoplasty was performed at the same time to help preserve the size of the eye opening.

Lateral canthoplasty two years earlier had resulted in re-adhesion and an unnatural, squared-off outer-corner shape.

Lateral canthoplasty reconstruction restored a more defined outer-corner contour.

One year after lateral and lower canthoplasty, the outer corners had re-adhered in a squared-off shape, with raised lower-lid contours and scarring.

Reconstruction addressed the scars and restored defined outer corners. Lower canthoplasty revision helped preserve the eye-opening size.

The outer corners became squared off after lateral and lower canthoplasty four years earlier.

Reconstruction and lower canthoplasty restored defined outer corners and a smoother, rounded lower-lid contour.

Lateral and lower canthoplasty four years earlier had left the outer corners unnaturally rounded.

Lateral canthoplasty reconstruction restored a more defined shape to the rounded outer corners.

The outer corners are C-shaped, and interruption of the eyelid gray line leaves the lower-lid contour uneven.

Reconstruction restored continuity of the gray line and reshaped the C-shaped outer corners. Lower canthoplasty helped preserve eye-opening size.

After lateral and lower canthoplasty, exposed conjunctiva caused irritation, and the lower-canthoplasty result was insufficient. The patient wanted revision surgery.

Reconstruction closed the exposed conjunctiva at the outer corners. Lower canthoplasty helped preserve eye-opening size and softened the previously sharp appearance.

Previous lateral and lower canthoplasty had caused severe scarring along the left lower lid, with pain when opening and closing the eye.

Reconstruction addressed the scar and improved the pain. Simultaneous lower canthoplasty created a more open eye shape.

Two previous canthoplasty procedures had caused severe lower-lid scarring, irritation and dry-eye symptoms.

Reconstruction addressed the exposed red scar, while simultaneous lower canthoplasty helped preserve eye-opening size.

After lateral canthoplasty, the outer corners appeared open and scarred. The patient also wanted relief from irritation and pain.

Reconstruction and lower canthoplasty improved the scars while preserving the size of the eye openings.

The outer corner is open, exposing a red scar.

Lateral canthoplasty reconstruction closed the open outer corner and improved the exposed red scar.

Lateral canthoplasty seven years earlier had been followed by recurrent conjunctival swelling and a red scar.

Reconstruction improved the scar, and lower canthoplasty created a more open appearance.

A red scar is visible along the eyelid gray line.

Reconstruction repositioned the scar inward so it was less visible externally.

The conjunctiva is extensively exposed following lateral canthoplasty.

Repositioning the skin inward and performing lower canthoplasty improved the scar while preserving eye-opening size.

Eyetail/corner shape unnatural was the state.

Reconstruction corrected the unnatural outer-corner shape and closed the exposed conjunctiva. Lower canthoplasty helped preserve eye-opening size.

Lateral canthoplasty five years earlier had left the outer corners over-opened, with recurrent conjunctival swelling.

Reconstruction closed the over-opened corners, while simultaneous lower canthoplasty helped preserve eye-opening size.

The patient wanted to correct an unnatural angle at the outer corner.

Reconstruction restored a defined contour to the re-adhered outer corner, while lower canthoplasty rounded the angled lower-lid line.

Eight years after lateral canthoplasty, the outer corners were unnaturally angled, with exposed scars.

Reconstruction restored a defined outer-corner shape and improved the scars. Lower canthoplasty further increased the eye opening.

Lateral and lower canthoplasty nine months earlier had produced insufficient improvement, with unnatural re-adhesion of the outer corners.

Reshaping the outer corners and performing lower canthoplasty created a more open eye appearance.

The outer corners are rounded into a C-shape, and the lower-canthoplasty result has loosened.

Reconstruction restored a defined outer-corner contour. Additional lower canthoplasty increased the opening and smoothed the lower-lid line.
