Ectropion is a malposition of the eyelid in which the lower eyelid falls away from its normal position to the globe with exposure of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva.1 Ectropion is the most common serious complication following lower blepharoplasty for the correction of baggy eyelid.2 Although lower blepharoplasty may be considered one of the most gratifying plastic surgery, but if ectropion occurs, it will be very distressing to both patient and surgeon.
