Blepharophimosis, Ptosis, and Epicanthus Inversus Syndrome: A Simple Remedy for Challenging Cases.

A 14-year-old male presented to the outpatient department of ophthalmology with complaints of visual impairment. The patient was assessed with a detailed history and physical examination. Marked amblyopia was observed on inspection, and his best-corrected vision was 6/36 in both eyes with no further improvement. Both the anterior and posterior segments of the eyes were normal. A diagnosis of blepharophimosis, ptosis, and epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES) was suspected. Surgery was initiated in two stages, with the first stage utilizing Mustarde's double Z-plasty to correct the epicanthus inversus and telecanthus. The second stage was done three months later, involving a tarsofrontalis sling with prolene sutures to correct ptosis. The success of this operation speaks to the efficacy of a two-stage procedure for remedying a syndrome as complex as BPES.
