Abstract
Prolapse of conjunctiva from the superior cul-de-sac, an infrequent complication of levator resection surgery, has been observed by us to have occurred following craniofacial reconstruction for craniostenosis. Three cases of conjunctival prolapse are presented: two that followed maximal external levator resections, and one that occurred after a supraorbital rim advancement and a subsequent cerebrospinal fluid leak. The causes of conjunctival prolapse and its appropriate treatment are reviewed.Entities:
