Ectropion and entropion are eyelid malpositions that cause irritation and tearing. Ectropion involves eversion of the eyelid while entropion involves inversion. They can be congenital, cicatricial due to scarring, mechanical due to masses, or involutional due to laxity. Surgical repair aims to tighten the eyelid and rotate the eyelid margin inward. Proper technique and anesthesia are important for successful repair and patient comfort.
