RESUMO
A case of bilateral congenital upper eyelid eversion (CUEE) in an otherwise normal healthy 6 day old neonate of African descent (Nigeria). Pregnancy and delivery history were uneventful. The baby recovered completely 5 days after the commencement of conservative management. This case further gives credence to the usefulness of conservative therapy in the management of CUEE.
