The upper, lower eyelids or both may be affected. This condition leads to the appearance of a painful eye, redness of the eyes, excessive tearing, and ulcers and scars can appear on the cornea. In very young dogs, temporary suturing can be performed to move the edge of the eyelids away from the corneal tissue. In some breeds of dogs (Shar Pei, Chow Chow) it is necessary to perform combined surgeries in order to correct the entropion.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;546&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><em>Entropion in a young, Cane Corso dog (arrow). <\/em><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><em>The dog is showing signs of eye irritation (tearing and excessive blinking)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;544&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><em>The same dog two weeks after the surgery. <\/em><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><em>The problem has been eliminated and there is no more eye irritation (no tearing). <\/em><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><em>The sutures are barely noticeable (arrows).<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>What is ectropion?<\/h3>\n<p>Ectropion is an outward rolling of the eyelids.
