Trachoma is the most common cause of trichiasis and cicatricial entropion worldwide. Tarsal fracture and lid margin rotation is the principal surgical technique used for correction. The transconjunctival approach offers a simple, rapid, and highly effective approach without the need for a skin incision. It is used for both the upper and lower lids.

Trichiasis is a condition of abnormal eyelash growth with misdirection posteriorly. Distichiasis is an abnormality of a second row of lashes emanating from meibomian glands. In both conditions the lid margin is in a normal position. Involutional entropion is an eyelid malposition with secondary trichiasis.

Argon Laser Treatment of Trichiasis
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1992The argon laser was used to treat trichiasis in 44 patients over a five-year period. During follow-up intervals of between one month and more than four years (mean, 13 months), ablation of misdirected cilia was accomplished with one treatment in 26 patients (59%). No complications were observed.

Simple Surgery for Severe Trichiasis
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2007To describe a simple surgical technique for the definitive treatment of severe trichiasis, where the eyelid position is adequate.Five anterior lamellar excision procedures are reported, with wounds left to heal by the laissez-faire technique.Postoperatively, all patients were symptom free.

Transactions of the ophthalmological societies of the United Kingdom, 1979
A series of 41 cases of trichiasis was treated with cryosurgery using a standard retinal cryoprobe. The failure rate was approximately 50 per cent. The results should be improved by using properly designed equipment capable of cooling the lash follicles to -20 degrees C, and ensuring that this temperature is achieved by using a tissue thermocouple.

Argon Laser Treatment for Trichiasis
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1992The goal of trichiasis treatment is to eliminate misdirected cilia that irritate the eyeball. Established methods for removal of the eyelashes include epilation, electrolysis, and cryotherapy. Cryotherapy is currently the most effective method in widespread use, but has as potential posttreatment complications "visual loss, lid notching, corneal ulcer,

Treatment of Localized Trichiasis with Radiosurgery
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1993Several treatments exist for trichiasis, a condition in which misdirected lashes come in contact with the globe. The treatments can be considered in two groups, those that destroy the lash follicle and those that redirect the lashes. No technique is without potential complications, and none is 100% effective.
