Several functional and morphological studies have been conducted on the pineal gland in many mammalian species; however, no published reports are available on the role of pineal gland on the gonadal development before and after eyelids separation in puppies. Therefore, this study aimed to trace the postnatal histo-morphological changes in the pineal gland and gonads of puppies before (2, 10 and...

UPPER EYELIDS When considering rejuvenating the upper eyelids, it must be understood that with age, the eyebrow (Table 1) gravitates downward, causing a pseudodermachalasis of the upper eyelids. This, in turn, is responsible for static crow’s feet, and with a receding hairline we get widening of the forehead. Because the eyebrow is low, it is raised to improve the appearance (in front of the mi...

Eleven patients with cutaneous anthrax of the eyelids are presented. The complications were cicatricial ectropion (eight patients), resulting in corneal scarring (three patients). The ectropion was corrected by full thickness postauricular skin grafts, with good results. The predilection of this infection for the eyelids of young children and a seasonal variation suggest that a vector may be in...

A patient with secondary syphilis and extensive condylomata lata on the face, neck, axillae, groins, and genitalia is described. His facial condylomata lata affected the eyelids, medial canthus, nasolabial folds, angles of the mouth, and chin. Condylomata lata of the eyelids has not been described previously.

In normal mice the eyelids grow across the eye and fuse together during days 15 and 16 of gestation, and the mice are born with their eyes closed. In mutant lgMl)/lgMl) (lidgap-Miller) foetuses this growth and fusion does not occur and the mice are born with their eyes open. A single prenatal treatment with cortisone on day 14 of gestation masks the genetic defect, and the mice are born with th...

introduction: consumption of morphine, during pregnancy, in addition to inducing defects in the mother’s nervous system function, caused defects or delays in the formation and evolution of embryonic visual system. in the present study, changes in lens development were assessed in embryos exposed to morphine in utero. methods: female wistar rats (250-300 g) were mated with male rats and pregnanc...

purpose: to determine the success rate and complications of blepharotomy and tarsotomy in moderately severe upper eyelid cicatritial entropion. methods: this randomized clinical trial was conducted on patients with moderately severe cicatritial entropion. the patients were followed for six months and the results and complications were evaluated. success was defined as uncontacted eyelid margin ...

There have been sparse reports in literature of avulsion and degloving injuries of individual areas of face like the nose, eyelids, ear and even mandible. Hemi-facial degloving is extremely rare. We present a case of post-assault degloving of the nose, part of forehead with anterior wall of frontal sinus, entire upper and lower eyelids and the cheek. Proper planning and staging of the surgical ...

We locate the eye corners, eyelids, and irises in every frame of an image sequence, and analyze the movements of the irises and eyelids to determine changes in gaze direction and blinking, respectively. Using simple models for the motions of the head and eyes, we determine the head-independent motions of the irises and eyelids by stabilizing for the head motion. The head-independent motions of ...
