Adnexal Surgery for Severe Ocular Surface Disease

Secondary causes of ocular surface disease are—to a large extent—due to disorders of the ocular adnexae. The main pathomechanisms involved include exposure, abrasion and malnutrition, resulting from a multitude of disorders such as ec– or entropion (e.g. in cicatrizing conjunctivitis), lid retraction and severe aqueous deficiency. In the presence of these problems, surgical attempts of ocular surface reconstruction frequently fail. Here we review established and evolving new techniques in the field of adnexal surgery to specifically address these problems.
