    Floppy eyelid syndrome, a condition causing loose upper eyelids and chronic conjunctivitis, was first described in 1981. This study presents five patients, detailing the characteristic clinical features of this disorder.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Oculoplastics

    Context:

    • Floppy eyelid syndrome (FES) is a distinct clinical entity characterized by laxity of the upper eyelid.
    • It is often associated with chronic papillary conjunctivitis and can lead to significant ocular surface disease.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the characteristic clinical findings of floppy eyelid syndrome.
    • To present a series of five patients diagnosed with this condition.

    Summary:

    • The study details five cases of floppy eyelid syndrome, highlighting the hallmark features of spontaneous upper eyelid eversion and chronic conjunctivitis.
    • Distinctive clinical manifestations observed in these patients are illustrated.

    Impact:

    • This case series contributes to the understanding of floppy eyelid syndrome's presentation.
