Abstract

A 78-year-old woman had ectropion of both lower eyelids 4 weeks after the appearance of dermatitis around the eyes. Treatment with topical corticosteroids resulted in disappearance of both dermatitis and ectropion within 10 days. No relevant contact allergies were found. Her advanced age and a familial tendency toward edema around the eyes, indicating preexisting loss Of elasticity, probably facilitated this apparently rare reaction.
