Epiblepharon commonly occurs in Japanese infants and tends to disappear spontaneously with age. We examined 4449 Japanese children aged 3 months to 18 years for epiblepharon associated with inverted eyelashes touching the cornea. The condition was evident in 441 cases. We found that the incidence of epiblepharon decreased with age, but about 2% of high school students still had the condition. No sexual predilection was found. Lower eyelids were commonly involved bilaterally. Most cases of epiblepharon produced no or mild symptoms.
睑裂斑常见于日本婴儿,且往往会随着年龄增长而自行消失。我们对4449名年龄在3个月至18岁的日本儿童进行了检查,以确定与倒睫接触角膜相关的睑裂斑情况。在441例病例中发现了这种情况。我们发现睑裂斑的发病率随年龄下降,但约2%的高中生仍患有这种疾病。未发现性别偏好。下眼睑通常双侧受累。大多数睑裂斑病例没有症状或仅有轻微症状。
