Summary

To determine which of three types of spacer grafts (hard palate vs autologous ear cartilage vs Enduragen) are the most effective in lower eyelid retraction repair outcomes as measured by MRD2 (margin to reflex distance 2)

Conditions

  • Eyelid Diseases
  • Eyelid Droop

Interventions

DEVICE

Spacer Graft

In this prospective, randomized clinical trial, patients who will already be undergoing lower eyelid retraction repair with a spacer graft will randomly be assigned via a randomization web-site to receive 1 of 3 spacer grafts: hard palate, autologous auricular cartilage, and porcine acellular dermal matrix (Enduragen). Both the patient and the surgeon will know which of the three possible grafts are being used.
