title: Lower eyelid full-thickness vertical lengthening.
abstract: Two cases of lower eyelid retraction caused by loss of full-thickness eyelid components were successfully treated with a tarsal-confunctival flap and skin graft procedure. One patient also had upper eyelid retraction, which was decreased by excising Müller's muscle and recessing the levator aponeurosis simultaneously with the lower eyelid surgery.
