This 3D model illustrates ectropion, a condition where the eyelid turns outward, exposing the inner surface of the eyelid and causing potential irritation. The visualization highlights the eye’s vulnerability to dryness, infection, and discomfort due to the exposed conjunctiva. This model is valuable for ophthalmologists, medical students, and healthcare professionals to understand the causes of ectropion, which may include age-related changes, facial nerve paralysis, or scarring, and to explore treatment options such as surgical correction or eyelid tightening.
