Q

which muscle is the main eyelid protractor, with the primary function of narrowing the palpebral fissure and closing the eye lids. ‘it contracts medially to pump tears toward the ducts. Innervated by CN VII, orbital portion is largest part - wink, preseptal portion is for winking and blinking

Q

What is unique to asian populations in terms of crease position and orbital septum anatomy of upper lid

A

Creases in lower position than caucasians
Upper lid orbital septum can be fused to the anoneurosis as it inserts into the tarsus - as high as the superior border of the tarsus, or as low as the lashes line = lower or absent UL crease

Q

Term for upper eyelid sin laxity that increases with age, causing a hooding effect - not the same as ptosis, can be severe, causing mechanical ptosis with or without superior visual field defect or entropion
