Anterior versus posterior retractor reinsertion with a lateral tarsal strip for involutional entropion repair: A multicentric experience.

Purpose: The aim was the comparison of two different approaches to re-insert the inferior eyelid retractors within addition to lateral tarsal strip at lower eyelid involutional entropion (LEIE) surgical correction.

Method: This multicentric retrospective case series involved 233 consecutive patients (195 eyelids) who underwent LEIE repair. All the lids had a lateral tarsal strip (LTS) in addition to the reinsertion of retractors onto the tarsal plate via the anterior approach (group 1) or the posterior approach (group 2).
