The document provides information about anatomy and disorders of the eyelid:
- The eyelids perform the important function of spreading tears over the cornea. The palpebral aperture is the space between the upper and lower lids. The lid margin helps in drainage of tears via the lacrimal pump system.
- Disorders mentioned include blepharitis, styes, entropion, ectropion, and tumors. Bacterial blepharitis is caused by Staphylococci and can cause ulcers and redness of the lid margin. Tumors include benign papillomas and malignant carcinomas such as basal cell carcinoma and sebaceous gland carcinoma.
