What Conditions Can Abnormal Eyelid Measurements Indicate?
Abnormal eyelid measurements can indicate various conditions:
- [Ptosis](#): An abnormally low MRD1 can suggest ptosis, or drooping of the upper eyelid. - Blepharophimosis: A significantly reduced palpebral fissure length may indicate blepharophimosis, a congenital condition. - Hypertelorism: An increased intercanthal distance can suggest hypertelorism, often associated with syndromes such as [Noonan syndrome](#) or craniofacial dysostosis. - Telecanthus: Increased intercanthal distance with normal interpupillary distance may suggest telecanthus, often seen in conditions like [Waardenburg syndrome](#).
