(m.o), Anesthetize the animal & assess wound for feasibility of closure by primary suturing. If this is not possible, the animal should be referred for eyelid grafting and reconstruction Step 2 Place topical, ocular lubricant ointment in the eye to protect it during this process. Manually remove large clumps of hair and debris & flush out fine debris using gentle irrigation with sterile saline solution (m.o), Eyelid Laceration Repair Consists of Aetiology (m.o), Intra-Operative Procedure Step 1 Anesthetize the animal & assess wound for feasibility of closure by primary suturing. If this is not possible, the animal should be referred for eyelid grafting and reconstruction, Eyelid Laceration Repair Consists of Evaluation (m.o), A one- or two-layer closure can be performed (m.o) Step 4 Closure of the skin is important to the strength and cosmesis of the eyelid. (m.o), Place topical, ocular lubricant ointment in the eye to protect it during this process. Manually remove large clumps of hair and debris & flush out fine debris using gentle irrigation with sterile saline solution (m.o) Step 3 A one- or two-layer closure can be performed (m.o), Eyelid Laceration Repair Consists of Physiology (m.o), Closure of the skin is important to the strength and cosmesis of the eyelid.
