Surgical correction of the lateral canthal deformity associated with anophthalmic "enophthalmos"

In order to correct the lateral canthal and lower eyelid deformities associated with anophthalmic "enophthalmos", this paper proposes that a surgical modification of the bead implant operation be used in order to reposition the lateral canthal tendone to a higher level than its preoperative location. The surgical technique is described, and its usefulness in correcting similar lateral canthal deformities associated with fracture dislocations of the zygoma is mentioned.
