摘要：

Case report: A 3- days-old female infant presented to our clinic with bilateral everted, upper eyelids and conjunctival chemosis protruding from interpalpebral area. The systemic findings and cytogenetic study revealed the diagnosis of Down syndrome. Following a period of conservative treatment without recovery, surgical excision of conjunctival chemosis has been peformed. Histopathological analysis revealed dilation of capillaries and hemorrhage which was assumed to be due to the congestion of the conjunctiva as a result of eyelid eversion. Comment: Congenital upper eyelid eversion is a rare condition associated frequently with Down syndrome. It may cause serious conjunctival chemosis occluding the visual axis and may warrant surgical treatment.
