The bands connecting the upper and lower eyelids of both eyes were severed using blunt scissors. Point bleeding at the cut bands stopped in 1-2 minutes, without the need for cauterization or compression. The patient was able to open her eyes shortly after the procedure, as she woke up from anesthesia. Examination under general anesthesia showed normal eye examination appropriate for age. Postoperatively, the patient maintained open palpebral fissures. Visual development over 3 years{\textquoteright} follow-up was normal.}, issn = {1528-3933}, doi = {10.1016/j.jaapos.2020.04.002}, author = {Solyman, Omar and Elhusseiny, Abdelrahman M and Hashem, Hisham A} }
