OBJECTIVE Lateral canthoplasty is useful to correct lower eyelid malposition, restore eyelid function, and protect the ocular surface. An effective method for fixation of soft tissue in the face, such as the lateral canthus, using the Micro-Mitek Anchor System is presented. METHODS We report our experience in 96 patients who underwent lateral canthoplasty by Micro-Mitek Anchor. One hundred twenty-four lateral canthoplasties were performed, including, senile ectropion, tumors, trauma, cicatricial retraction, and lower eyelid malposition after blepharoplasty. RESULTS The insertion of a bone anchor requires a limited dissection, and the insertion area can be determined accurately. Using the bone anchor to fixate the lateral canthus to the facial skeleton is an effective way to prevent drooping of the canthus due to gravitational forces. CONCLUSIONS Lateral canthoplasty using the Mitek Anchor System has the advantage of being an easy technique with accurate placement of the anchor, reducing operating time.
