The history encompasses the patient's medical background, record of medication usage, past eye surgical procedures, and the patient's reported symptoms. The physical examination encompasses assessments of visual acuity, biomicroscopic inspection, evaluation of eyelid margins, and the administration of the Schirmer test. The treatment for trichiasis is determined by the extent of eyelash involvement, which includes factors such as the Soft Contact Lense Base Curve. Treatment options may include eyelash removal and surgical procedures, depending on the specific form of trichiasis that the patient is suffering. ching for articles on Google Scholar, PubMed, and NCBI.
