An Outcomes Assessment of the Utility of Belladerm Acellular Dermal Allograft in Ocular Lower Lid Retraction Repair

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Lower Eyelid Retraction
Registration Number
NCT02133495
Lead Sponsor
SGM Physician Research Consortium
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the efficacy and longevity of a Human-derived, non-cadaveric, acellular dermal implant (BellaDerm) as a posterior spacer graft in the correction of lower eyelid retraction, taking into consideration issues associated with the use of acelular dermis such as contraction and potential regression of repairs.
