What Procedure Can Correct Entropion?
What procedure can correct Entropion? My husband has been to a local specialist and have tried a number of different things including Bo Tox. Nothing seems to ease the problems and his eyes continuely water and the lower lashes on both eyes constantly turn inward. I need to let you know that Kenneth has parkinsonism, not sure if that anything to do with it.

Hello,
Persistent senile entropion can be corrected by surgery. Entropion surgery is done by oculoplastic surgeon who is an ophthalmologist with additional training in such surgeries. Constant rubbing of eyelashes on the cornea can lead to further complications. Hence it is better to get operated early.
