Presentation
It is uncommon for an orbital foreign body to present with isolated eyelid involvement. We report a rare presentation of an intraorbital foreign body presenting as a lower lid entropion in a 7-year-old boy. 2. [scirp.org]
Case presentation A 74-year-old Caucasian man presented to the ophthalmology outpatient clinic with a five-day history of a heavy and sore right eye. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]
Secondary entropion Timecourse Most cases of primary entropion present before 6 months of age. Occasionally, some cases present >12 months. Entropion in the Shar Pei can present as early as 2 weeks. [vetstream.com]

Urogenital
- Frequency of Micturition
Eight days prior to presentation to the eye clinic, our patient consulted a urologist with complaints of frequency of micturition and had been started on tamsulosin (Flomaxtra XL) 0.4 mg once a day with good response. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]
Treatment
The treatment of entropion is not addressed in this article. Rather, we will discuss the treatment of trichiasis in well-positioned eyelid margins, or in lids after entropion correction. [reviewofophthalmology.com]
We report a case of lower lid entropion that may be related to a patient commencing treatment of tamsulosin. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]
If the problem persists, the optometrist will refer the patient to the ophthalmologist, who may decide to remove the lashes by electrolysis, cryotherapy (freezing treatment) or laser treatment. [college-optometrists.org]
Treatment is withdrawal of the offending agent ± a short course of mild steroid cream. Atopic dermatitis (eczema). There is thickening, crusting and vertical fissuring of the lids. Treatment is with emollients and mild topical steroid creams. [patient.info]
When ectropion is caused by stretching of the eyelid’s supporting structures, surgery is the best treatment to repair the involved muscle and tendons of the eyelid. [berkseye.com]
Prognosis
When the cause is autoimmune or inflammatory disease, the prognosis is guarded because of frequent disease progression; when the cause is prior surgery or trauma, the prognosis is generally good because the process tends to be localized and reversible [aao.org]
Prognosis : good. Print off the owner factsheet on Entropion Entropion to give to your client. Pathogenesis Predisposing factors General Genetic predisposition in facial conformation and eyelid support. [vetstream.com]
Prognosis is excellent if surgery is performed before the cornea is damaged. [en.wikipedia.org]
It is aggressive and has a poor prognosis with an overall mortality rate of 10% (although 67% in patients with metastases). A history of recurrent presumed chalazion or chronic unilateral blepharoconjunctivitis should raise suspicions. [patient.info]
Etiology
Procedures for the repair of cicatricial entropion They will depend on the degree of scarring and entropion, the etiology of the cicatricial changes, and the status of the tarsal plate. [8, 9] Mild cases can be treated with a transverse blepharotomy with [emedicine.medscape.com]
It can also have a spastic etiology secondary to ocular irritation or blepharospasm. In some cases it can be congenital. [filereyemd.com]
Once the diagnosis of cicatricial entropion is made, the underlying etiology should be determined. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu]

Choice of surgical approach is directed by the underlying etiologic factor(s). [omicsonline.org]
Pathophysiology
Although it is not a permanent solution and does not address the pathophysiologic contribution of horizontal lid laxity, it is a great temporizing solution for a problem presenting significant irritation to a patient. [healio.com]
Pathophysiology Primary entropion - anatomical. Secondary entropion - alteration in anatomical confirmation due to secondary factor. [vetstream.com]
