What to do with inverted eyelashes, what to do with inverted eyelashes

I have to go to the hospital to ask the doctor, I have a friend who has inverted eyelashes, and she doesn't fall after she has double eyelids! If your child also has a single eyelid, you may want to consider getting double eyelids.

But with the doctor's approval, after all, the child is still very young...

I should have surgery. I have a good friend who is inverted eyelashes. And it's not as serious as you. But she's had surgery.

Trichiasis is referred to as "trichiasis", and the causes of its formation are congenital and acquired

Congenital trichiasis is present after birth, usually in the lower eyelids. Because the eyelashes prick the eyeball, babies often blink and tear. If the cornea is punctured, the eye will become red and photophobic.

The most common cause of acquired trichiasis is trachoma. This is because trachoma can cause conjunctival scarring of the tarpal plate, which in turn can lead to inversion and trichiasis. Eye burns, eyelid trauma or eyelid surgery can also cause eyelid scarring, causing normal trichiasis to pierce the eyeball.

In addition, diseases such as pemphigoid in the eye can also cause trichiasis due to scarring of the eyelid conjunctiva.

The following methods are generally recommended:

1.Pull out the inverted eyelashes: Pull out the trichiasis with eyelash tweezers, which is simple and has no sequelae. However, eyelashes will grow back, so trichiasis should be plucked every four to six weeks.

2.Electric cauterization: The hair roots of the eyelashes are destroyed by electric cautery, so that the trichiasis will no longer grow. However, electrocautery may not be able to destroy the hair roots accurately, but may damage the adjacent normal eyelashes, causing additional trichiasis.

3.Freezing method: The hair follicles of the eyelashes are frozen and destroyed at a low temperature of minus 20 degrees, and the effect is good. However, it may cause the eyelids to lose pigment and cause uneven eyelid color.

4.Laser method: The laser is used to destroy the root of the eyelashes, and the effect is also good. But it may take two or three times to break the root, and the cost is also higher.

5.Surgical method: If there are only a few local trichiasis, the trichiasis and eyelid can be removed together. If the trichiasis is so large that the entire row of eyelashes is inverted, surgery is required to turn the eyelid margin outward.

Trichiasis needs to be treated in the following ways: first, for a small amount of mild trichiasis, you can use eyelash forceps to pull out the trichiasis, which can make the patient's eyes bloodshot, redness, foreign body sensation, tingling, photophobia, tearing and other symptoms to be relieved, but after pulling out the trichiasis, the hair follicles of the eyelashes are not damaged, and the trichiasis is easy to appear**. Second, electrolytic trichiasis, which is usually suitable for patients with recurrent trichiasis, by using electrolytic needles to destroy the hair follicles of the eyelashes and avoid trichiasis**.

Thirdly, entropion correction surgery**, suitable for a large number of trichiasis caused by entropion, after the patient's surgery, the edge of the eyelid will no longer roll in the direction of the eyeball, and the trichiasis will be**.

Drugs**: Patients can use polyethylene glycol eye drops or sodium hyaluronate eye drops under the guidance of a doctor**, these eye drops can relieve the friction of trichiasis on the eye, relieve the uncomfortable symptoms such as eye pain, eye redness and tearing caused by trichiasis, promote corneal epithelial repair, and if necessary, antibiotic eye ointment such as tobramycin eye ointment can also be used to protect the cornea. 2.

Surgical ascension**: If the trichiasis is of the order of magnitude, it can be removed under the slit lamp; If there are a large number of them, and the range of friction against the eyeball is large, and the discomfort symptoms are still not relieved after the use of drugs**, surgery** needs to be considered, such as entropion trichiasis correction or double blepharoplasty.

Trichia can be treated with medication or surgery. 1.Medications**:

Under the guidance of a doctor, patients can use polyethylene glycol eye drops or glass beam pichang sodium virate eye drops**, these eye drops can relieve the friction of trichiasis on the eye, relieve the uncomfortable symptoms such as eye pain, eye redness and tearing caused by trichiasis, promote corneal epithelial repair, and if necessary, antibiotic eye ointment such as tobramycin eye ointment can also be used to protect the cornea. 2.Surgery**:

If the number of trichiasis is small, it can be removed under the slit lamp; If the number is large, and the range of friction against the eyeball is larger than that of the hand, and the discomfort symptoms are still not relieved after the use of drugs**, surgery** needs to be considered, such as entropion trichiasis correction or double eyelid surgery.
