    The document discusses the anatomy and examination of normal eyelids. Key points include that normal eyelids have intact skin, similar color to the face, no visible sclera when open, ability to completely close, and symmetrical blinking of 15-20 times per minute. The eyelids function to protect the eyes, maintain the corneal surface, position the globe, regulate light, and provide cosmesis. Examination of eyelids includes gross examination, measurement, snap back testing, tearing tests, probing, dye tests, and measurement of levator function.

    FUNCTION OF EYELIDS
    • Protection from external environment
    • Maintain integrity of corneal surface
    • Maintain proper position of globe within orbit
    • Regulate amount of light
    • Cosmesis
    • EYELID MALPOSITION
    • EYELID LESION
    METHOD OF EXAMINATION
    • Gross examination
    • Eyelid measurement
    • Snap back test / distraction test
    • Tearing and lacrimal apparatus irrigation
    • Probing and irrigation
    • Dye dissapearance test
    • Jones test
    LEVATOR FUNCTION MEASUREMENT

    • Place thumb against brow to stop


    frontalis
    • Patient look down, then look up
    • Measure with ruler
    • Normal : > 15mm
    • Good : > 12mm
    • Poor : < 4mm
