Successful Ocular Surface Reconstruction in Complete Ankyloblepharon With the Simple Oral Mucosal Epithelial Transplantation Technique: A Case Report

Abstract

SOMET is a simple modified technique using minimal oral mucosal tissue to regenerate epithelialization for complicated ocular surface reconstruction such as a complete ankyloblepharon repair. Although there was evidence of conjunctival invasion, stable ocular surface and deep fornices can be achieved for further visual rehabilitative procedure.
