| description | Description of rare congenital condition of eyelid imbrication with floppy eyelid and spontaneous eversion in a healthy newborn. The main feature is the bilateral overlapping of lower eyelids by floppy upper eyelids during resting period and sleep. With slightest effort and on crying, there was eversion of the upper eyelids exposing hyperemic conjunctiva. The condition resolved spontaneously on conservative treatment within 2 weeks. Congenital eyelid imbrication with floppy lid and spontaneous lid eversion is rare and bears good prognosis when managed conservatively. Although the entity may look grave to parents at presentation, normal anatomy is achieved without any sequel; hence, parental counselling is deemed necessary. |
