[Problems in the implantation of permanent magnets of the treatment of lagophthalmos (author's transl)].
We tried to implanted permanent magnets in the eye lid to cure lagophthalmos. But severe complications occurred very often, mainly decubitus with expulsion of the magnet through the skin. We think that it is necessary to change the system to get better results with permanent magnets in the treatment of lagophthalmos.
