Potential complications of untreated cases include recurrent inflammation of the conjunctiva and cornea, conjunctival neovascularization, corneal abrasion or perforation, and ultimately even loss of vision. Although various surgical techniques are used to address this problem, their long-term outcome and effectiveness are still under discussion. &lt;\/br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Aim:&lt;\/b&gt; To evaluate outcomes of surgery for entropion and ectropion, including a modified Wheeler\u2019s method for entropion correction.&lt;\/br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Methods:&lt;\/b&gt; A non-comparative study (prospective and retrospective groups) included 100 patients operated on in two university hospitals\u2019 plastic surgery departments for lower eyelid entropion or ectropion, following formal ethics approval. The prospective group included 50 patients assessed preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. The retrospective group was comprised of 50 patients (2012\u20132018), whose preoperative documentation and clinical examinations were analyzed. The main outcome measures were change between pre- and postoperative patient-reported symptoms (VAS scale), ectropion\/entropion grading scale (EGS\/EnGS), quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF), and occurrence of complications.&lt;\/br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Results:&lt;\/b&gt; The differences in the severity of all symptoms before and after surgery evaluated with the VAS scale were statistically significant in both groups (p &lt;0.05). We observed 6 recurrences (12%) in the prospective group and 9 (18%) in the retrospective group, with minor complications. Very good functional and esthetic postoperative results were confirmed in 70% (79) of the whole group and in 13 patients (81.3%) treated with the modified Wheeler\u2019s method. In the prospective group, the Mann\u2013 Whitney U test for dependent variables revealed significant improvement in the somatic, psychological, and environmental domains, with no significant change in the social relationships domain.&lt;\/br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/b&gt; The results following entropion\/ectropion surgery prove the effectiveness of the methods used. Complementing them with the modified Wheeler\u2019s method brought an increase in the number of very good outcomes. Surgery of lower eyelid malposition contributed to reduced symptoms and improved quality of life. The rates of postoperative sequelae were low.&lt;\/br&gt;<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5604\/01.3001.0053.9352","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,6]],"date-time":"2024-03-06T10:40:57Z","timestamp":1709721657000},"page":"50-58","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Evaluation of outcomes of lower eyelid entropion and ectropion surgical repair"],"prefix":"10.5604","volume":"96","author":[{"given":"Ewa","family":"Wo\u017aniak-Roszkowska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Second Chair of Surgery, Medical University of  Lodz, Poland, Department of Plastic Surgery, Prof. W.
