Disorders of Lid
Department of Ophthalmology
1
Learning Objectives
? At the end of this class the students shal be
able to :
? Understand the structure and function of the
eyelids
? Recognize common diseases of the eyelids
? Comprehend the principles of managing eyelid
diseases
2
The eyelids
? Mobile structures
placed in front of
eyeballs.

? Help in tear drainage by
lacrimal pump system
3
Structure of eyelids
? The skin- elastic and
thin
? Subcutaneous areolar
tissue- very loose,
does not contain any
fat.
? Striated muscle layer-
orbicularis oculi
-- orbital, palpebral
and lacrimal portions.
? Sub muscular areolar
tissue- contains
nerves and vessels.
4

central tarsal
plate and
peripheral
orbital septum

striated muscle
fibres

epithelium

glands/Tarsal glands

glands(30 in no.)
