Inferior rectus muscle recession tends to retract the lower eyelid. Several surgical techniques have been recommended to minimize this problem. This study compared Lockwood ligament advancement with lower lid retractor lysis (capsulopalpebral fascia disinsertion) and found that the latter technique, performed simultaneously with inferior rectus recession, more effectively minimizes postoperative lower lid retraction.

Reconstruction of 2 Independent Facial Defects Using A Single Paramedian Forehead Flap.
J Craniofac Surg
November 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, Medical University of South Carolina.
Background: The paramedian forehead flap (PMFF) has been well established for use in reconstruction limited to a single nasal outer layer defect and has recently gained recognition as an acceptable alternative to traditional methods of lower eyelid reconstruction. The use of a single, pedicled PMFF for the reconstruction of more than one defect has yet to be described.
Methods: A 59-year-old male patient was originally diagnosed with large squamous cell carcinoma resulting in radical resection and ipsilateral neck dissection.
Impact of Pterygium Excision Combined with Autologous Limbal Stem Cell Transplantation on Microvascular Density, Tear Film Stability, and Corneal Wound Healing.
Ann Ital Chir
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Affiliated Hospital 2 of Nantong University, 226001 Nantong, Jiangsu, China.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of pterygium excision combined with autologous limbal stem cell transplantation on microvascular density, tear film stability, and corneal wound healing in the management of pterygium.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 317 patients with pterygium who underwent treatment between January 2021 and January 2024. Patients were divided into a control group (pterygium excision alone, n = 161) and a study group (pterygium excision combined with autologous limbal stem cell transplantation, n = 156) based on the surgical approach.
Using Transorbital Sonography for Assessing Traumatic Brain Injury in Patients With Periorbital Hematoma.
J Craniofac Surg
January 2025
Department of Emergency, Shaoxing People's Hospital, Shaoxing, China.
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the comparative effectiveness of transorbital sonography (TOS) and the pupillary penlight visual assessment method in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and periorbital hematoma.
Methods: A total of 140 patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria, were selected from a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province between January 2022 and December 2023. Pupillary function in all patients was assessed using both TOS and the pupillary penlight visual assessment method on the first, third, and seventh day after admission.

Br J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, Prince of Wales Hospital, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Background: To report the presenting clinical, serological and treatment profiles of 1439 patients with thyroid eye disease (TED) from a tertiary centre in Hong Kong.
Study Populations: Consecutive patients with TED presented to the Thyroid Eye Clinic (TEC), the Chinese University of Hong Kong between 2014 and 2023.
Methods: Prospective cohort and masked review of medical records and orbital images.
Effects of Aging on Orbicularis Oculi Muscle Strength and Ultrastructure in Dermatochalasis: A Pilot Study.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Department of Neurology, National Institute of Medicine of the Ministry of Interior and Administration, 02-507 Warsaw, Poland.
Age-related changes to the orbicularis oculi muscle include impaired eyelid function, such as lagophthalmos, alterations in tear film dynamics, and aesthetic changes like wrinkles, festoons, and the descent of soft tissue. To date, the structural and functional changes that would comprehensively increase our understanding of orbicularis aging have not been analyzed. This study aims to investigate functional outcomes using surface electromyography and correlate them with ultrastructural changes in orbicularis during aging.
