ORDER CONTACT LENSES PAYMENT PORTAL Doctors Eyecare Cosmetic Glasses/Contacts Patient Info Contact Trichiasis is a common eyelid abnormality that’s commonly referred to as an ingrown eyelash. With this condition, the eyelashes are misdirected and grow inwards toward the eye. Those inward-turning lashes rub against the cornea (the clear, dome-like window covering the colored iris and the pupil), the conjunctiva (the thin, clear membrane covering the sclera, which is the white part of the eye), and the inner surface of the eyelids, irritating the eye. Trichiasis symptoms include redness, blurred vision, pain, watering of the eyes, and the feeling that something is in the eye. Since these signs are similar to those experienced with many other conditions, you should schedule an appointment with an eye doctor at Rock Hill Eye Center for an official diagnosis. Trichiasis treatment involves removing the eyelash, follicle, or both. The growth of the eyelashes may also be redirected. If the trichiasis is limited to a single eyelash or just a few eyelashes, your ophthalmologist may remove the problem-causing lash with forceps. While this eliminates the immediate problem, there is a chance the eyelash may grow back again in the wrong direction. If you have multiple lashes growing toward your eye, your ophthalmologist may recommend surgery to have them removed permanently.
