TrichiasisTrichiasis
Misdirected eye lashes are called trichiasis.Misdirected eye lashes are called trichiasis.Eyelashes (cilia) emerging normally i.e. from Eyelashes (cilia) emerging normally i.e. from anterior border of lid margin are misdirected anterior border of lid margin are misdirected backward towards the ocular surface backward towards the ocular surface (cornea).(cornea).Tarsal plate remains normal in position.Tarsal plate remains normal in position.Any condition causing entropion Any condition causing entropion (involutional, cicatricial as in Trachoma or (involutional, cicatricial as in Trachoma or spastic entropion) will cause misdirected spastic entropion) will cause misdirected lashes (Trichiasis) to rub against cornea lashes (Trichiasis) to rub against cornea

TreatmentTreatment
1.1. Epilation of affected eyelash, but they grow Epilation of affected eyelash, but they grow in 4- 6 weeksin 4- 6 weeks
2.2. Diathermy: 30 mA current is passed in the Diathermy: 30 mA current is passed in the root of affected eyelash for 10 seconds then root of affected eyelash for 10 seconds then epilated epilated
3.3. Electrolysis: done under local anaesthesia by Electrolysis: done under local anaesthesia by injecting lignocaine along the lid margin to injecting lignocaine along the lid margin to anaesthetize root of eyelashes. Positive pole anaesthetize root of eyelashes. Positive pole is applied temple. Negative pole is is applied temple. Negative pole is introduced in hair follicle and current of 2 introduced in hair follicle and current of 2 mA is used (bubble is seen at root of eyelash mA is used (bubble is seen at root of eyelash then) eyelash is then epilatedthen) eyelash is then epilated
