Involutional entropion is a common problem in the elderly population. The author describes a method of repair of involutional entropion that is a combination and modification of two existing surgical techniques.
Review of the cases of 20 consecutive patients (22 lids) who underwent surgery for involutional entropion. All surgical procedures were performed by the author. Repair consisted of a tarsal strip procedure combined with a modification of the Quickert-Rathbun suture technique. All patients had at least 1 year of follow-up.
Surgery was successful in 21 (95%) of the 22 eyelids. One patient was noted to have recurrent entropion at 21 months. The average length of follow-up was 33.3 months (range 12 to 79 months).
The surgical technique described is straightforward and reliable for the correction of involutional entropion.

回顾连续20例（22只眼睑）接受退行性睑内翻手术患者的病例。所有手术均由作者完成。修复包括睑板条手术结合对Quickert-Rathbun缝合技术的改良。所有患者均有至少1年的随访。
22只眼睑中有21只（95%）手术成功。1例患者在21个月时出现复发性睑内翻。平均随访时间为33.3个月（范围12至79个月）。
