Chemical burning of the external eye by a strong acid or alkali often results in symblepharon formation despite conventional therapy. We report a case with application of a Megasoft Bandage Lens to prevent symblepharon reformation after surgical correction. Complete epithelial healing was established after 3 months, when the lens could be removed. No complications were found with this lens. No symblepharon reformation occurred < or = 6 months after the surgical reconstruction.
