Congenital euryblepharon.

Three cases of congenital euryblepharon are presented. In these cases, horizontal width of the eyelid margin is abnormally increased in comparison to the globe and orbit. The 3 cases were all different. One case had involvement of all 4 lids. Another had unilateral involvement of upper and lower eyelids. A third case had bilateral lower lid involvement associated with other anomalies. The additional anomalies which have not been previously reported include a double row of meibomian gland orifices and an extreme lateral displacement of the lower canaliculus and punctum. All cases had varying degrees of vertical shortage of skin in the involved lids leading to lagophthalmos with a mild to moderate exposure keratitis. A review of previously reported cases of euryblepharon is made. The types of surgical procedures used to correct the deformities are discussed.

Ocular leprosy in the Canal Zone.

The results of a two year survey of eye problems among the patients at the Palo Seco Hospital in the Canal Zone are presented. Only two patients, one classified as having lepromatous leprosy and the other as having the tuberculoid form of the disease, failed to exhibit ocular complications. The high prevalence of leprotic ocular disease (96%) is most probably due to the advanced age of the patients, the lengthy duration of their illness, and the high percentage of patients afflicted by the lepromatous form of the disease.
