Assessment of Laser Parameters to Improve Lid Tension-A Proof of Concept towards Lasercanthoplasty.

Laser coagulation leads to lower eyelid shortening and an increase in lower eyelid tension. The strongest effect with the least tissue damage was shown for laser parameters of 1470 nm/2.5 W/2 s. In vivo studies of this effect have to confirm the efficacy of this concept prior to clinical application.
