Case description

This technique, described by Dr Sameera Irfan, offers a permanent cure of a row of aberrant eyelashes (Distichiasis) on both the upper and lower lid margins. These eyelashes are notorious in recurring after electro-epilation, cryotherapy. The newly growing aberrant eyelashes are very sharp, directed towards the cornea and cause considerable ocular irritation and corneal damage.
