Summary
Unusual cases of upper eyelid retraction occurred after orbital trauma, even years later. This suggests trauma may cause neurogenic or muscular eyelid issues, a previously undescribed phenomenon.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Neurology
- Trauma Surgery
Background:
- Posttraumatic upper eyelid retraction is a rare complication following orbital trauma.
- The superior rectus muscle is typically implicated in eyelid retraction after trauma.
- Latency periods between trauma and symptom onset can vary significantly.
