What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Anterior Lamellar RecessionProcedure or surgery

    ALR is a common surgical treatment that splits the skin and orbicularis oculi muscle from the tarsus and conjunctiva to recede the anterior lamella and expose the tarsus. Interlamellar separation can be accomplished via a grey line technique, an eyelid crease approach, or a combination of the two

  • Bilamellar Tarsal RotationProcedure or surgery

    the full-thickness transverse blepharotomy combined with everting sutures to rotate the inferior portion of the upper lid outwards and this procedure has a low recurrence risk

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Anterior Lamellar Recession and Bilamellar Tarsal Rotation in people with Cicatricial Trichiasis, run by Al-Azhar University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?
