Congenital Eyelid Imbrication and Floppy Eyelid Syndrome in a Patient With Cat Eye Syndrome.
A newborn male with cat eye syndrome presented with progressively worsening bilateral upper eyelid imbrication, floppy eyelids, and ptosis. Despite conservative management, he remained unable to open his eyelids. Surgical correction was planned to prevent bilateral sensory deprivation amblyopia and was delayed until 5 months of age due to systemic health concerns. Bilateral full-thickness wedge excision and frontalis suspension with silicone rods in a double rhomboid fashion was performed. Postoperatively, the patient demonstrated spontaneous eyelid opening, resolution of spastic eversion of the upper eyelids, and adequate eyelid closure. The authors present the first case of concurrent floppy eyelid syndrome and upper eyelid imbrication reported in a cat eye syndrome patient.
