There are various methods for repairing the inner corner of the eye. For scar revision, surgical procedures must be performed with precision to conceal incision scars and minimize the formation of noticeable scarring. In cases where the inner canthus has been excessively opened, medial epicanthoplasty techniques such as CFLR reconstruction or epicanthal reduction surgery can be used to restore the epicanthal fold to its normal state, returning the eye to its natural length. Additionally, the V-Y advancement flap is a common repair technique that employs longitudinal tension-reducing sutures to decrease skin tension, thereby minimizing trauma and the likelihood of scar formation. During the repair process, surgeons select the most appropriate method based on the patient's individual condition and engage in effective communication to achieve optimal results. These corrective surgeries should be performed under the guidance of qualified, experienced physicians to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
