Other Details

Ectropion is the turning out of the eyelid (usually the lower eyelid) so that the inner surface is exposed. Ectropion is usually caused by the aging process and the weakening of the connective tissue of the eyelid, which causes the lid to turn out. It can also be caused by:

  • A defect that occurs before birth (in children with Down’s syndrome)
  • Facial palsy
  • Scar tissue from burns
  • Dry, painful eyes
  • Excess tearing of the eye (epiphora)
  • Eyelid turns outward
  • Long-term (chronic) conjunctivitis
  • Keratitis
  • Redness of the lid and white part of the eye.
