Abstract

A five-day old female Thoroughbred foal appealed mild edema and pain of a lower eyelid on left eye. She was diagnosed with a typical entropion which clinical signs were inward rolling of the eyelid edge and excess lacrimation. Modified Hotz-Celsus technique that resect and suture only skin was operated. Result was very successful without recurrence of entropion and other complications. We conclude this method is of value for permanent correction of severe entropion in young foals.
