Treatment and study plan

Anterior Lamellar Recession

Procedure

ALR is a common surgical treatment that splits the skin and orbicularis oculi muscle from the tarsus and conjunctiva to recede the anterior lamella and expose the tarsus. Interlamellar separation can be accomplished via a grey line technique, an eyelid crease approach, or a combination of the two

Bilamellar Tarsal Rotation

Procedure

the full-thickness transverse blepharotomy combined with everting sutures to rotate the inferior portion of the upper lid outwards and this procedure has a low recurrence risk
