ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Buried-suture double-eyelid blepharoplasty is very popular in Asia, especially in China, but there are few reports related to the cause, management, and prevention of suture-related complications of corneal injury and other damages to the eye. The study aims to determine the cause, management, and prevention of suture-related complications after buried-suture double-eyelid blepharoplasty.

METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted from January 2016 to January 2019 on 12 patients with corneal and other injuries to the eye after they underwent buried-suture double-eyelid blepharoplasty. The study included patients who underwent intermittent and continuous buried-suture double-eyelid blepharoplasty with the following symptoms: red eye, foreign body sensation, photophobia, pain, tears, and de creased vision. The clinical characteristics, examination method, and treatment were noted.

RESULTS: The patients were all females. Ocular injuries included: corneal epithelial punctate or diffuse injury in nine patients, corneal ulcer in two patients, and a perforating eye injury in one patient. The corneal injury was repaired after exposed nylon thread ends were removed. A suture on the surface of the eye penetrating the sclera was detected in one patient, who then had a vitrectomy caused by endophthalmitis.

CONCLUSION: Suture-removal surgery is indicated to treat suture-related complications. Less experienced clinicians should use an eyelid protection plate to protect the cornea and eyeball during surgery. The conjunctiva of the fornix should be examined after surgery. The clinician should inquire about the operation history in detail and check the conjunctiva of the fornix with an eyelid retractor to avoid misdiagnosis.
