Abstract |
The eyelid as an external anatomical structure of the human body has been subject to
surgical operations since Greek antiquity. According to ancient Greek literature, it was
considered a s the protector of the eyeball which participated in vision, sleep, illness and the
projection of the human character. The surgical o perations were initially simple incisions
following the folds of the skin and later the trend of the tarsus. The 19th centu ry marked the
beginning of modern eyelid surgery, although it was still difficult to separate benign and
malignant tumors and the operations were described briefly and in some cases with gaps.
Nevertheless, at the dawn of the 20th century, texts became cle ar, anatomical structures were
accurately described, differential diagnosis for tumors was introduced and surgical
techniques evolved in complexity. The two world wars further contributed to the
development of eyelid surgery. Techniques moved away from ski n, muscle, and tarsal
incisions and led to local fat conversions, use of flaps and microsurgery of muscles and
tendons.
This doctoral thesis deals with the issue of the evolution of eyelid surgery with the
method of documentary research. With the us e of key words a) eyelid, b) surgery, c) plastic,
d) blepharoplasty, e) history and f) eye and combinations and derivatives in the Hellenic,
French and English languages were carried out a) survey of the electronic database of
ancient Greek and Roman texts Thesaurus Linguae Graecae (TLG), b) research of the
electronic repository of written works Google Books, c) research and review of the articles
in the electronic database PubMed/MedLine and d) on hand documentary research in the
Health Sc iences Library of Athens. This bibliographic review attempts to record the history
of eyelid surgery over the centuries and to present the most important figures who
contributed to its development.
