This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two autologous grafts-dermis and auricular cartilage-in the surgical correction of the lower eyelid retraction. Our primary focus was assessing changes in lower eyelid position using lower eyelid Margin to corneal Reflex Distance measurements, a.k.a Margin reflex distance 2 (MRD2).
This prospective, randomized interventional study includes patients with stable LER. Patients are randomly assigned to undergo surgical correction using either auricular cartilage or dermis grafts, with the vertical dimension configured to be twice the scleral show height. MRD2 measurements were taken pre-operatively and at several post-operative intervals, with complications and outcomes recorded.

| Lower eyelid Margin Reflex Distance measurements (MRD2) in millimeters | Data collected includes measurements of lower eyelid retraction using MRD2 from pre- and at 7 days, one month, three months, and six months' postoperative in facial frontal view photographs. Measurements are performed in a PC with Image J tool on digital photographs. | 6 months |
