Purpose: The aim of this study was to find concrete clinical evidence for determination of the best method of treatment for trichiasis and the location that responds best to treatment with radiofrequency and argon laser.

Methods: This study was performed in 2007 and 2008 on 100 patients, involving a total of 1,181 lashes in contact with the globe. Patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups of treatment: the radiofrequency group (group 1; 2 watts, 2- to 3-mm depth, cut-coagulating mode) and the argon laser group (group 2; spot size 50 μm, 760 mW, 930-nm wavelengths, continuous).
