Q

name 3 functions of the EYELIDS?

Q

TRAUMA to the EYELIDS…

requires what 2 things? why?

what is the GOAL? why?

A

requires…
1. SURGERY
2. REPAIR ASAP

why? –> if the eye is left to heal on its own by SECONDARY INTENTION, could cause FIBROSIS & IRREGULAR EYELID MARGIN leading to OCULAR DZ

GOAL = to RESTORE SMOOTH EYELID MARGIN

Q

EYELID SURGERY…

how does the eye tend to heal? risk of infection?

what 4 things are REQUIRED to do the surgery?

how do PREP around the eye?

A

eye tends to heal QUICKLY due to GOOD BLOOD SUPPLY & LOW RISK OF INFECTION

what 4 things are REQUIRED to do the surgery?

2. HIGH INTENSITY, FOCAL LIGHT
3. SMALL SUTURE often VICRYL (absorbable) or SILK (needs to be removed)
4. APPROPRIATE INSTRUMENTATION specific for eyelids

PREP = must use DILUTE BETADINE, we CANNOT USE ALCOHOL OR CHLORHEXIDINE because it can CAUSE A CORNEAL ULCER
