Conjunctivochalasis.

Conjunctivochalasis (CCh) is an underdiagnosed and common condition characterized by redundant and loose conjunctival folds usually found in the inferior bulbar conjunctiva.1 The term, which originates from the Greek “chalasis,” meaning to slacken, was first coined by Hughes in 1942.2 CCh can cause a vast array of symptoms, ranging from mild discomfort, photosensitivity, epiphora to exposure keratopathy with subsequent visual loss in severe cases.3 It typically affects elderly patients and is often missed due to the broad spectrum of symptoms that can mimic other disorders. Management comprises a stepwise approach, ranging from topical lubricants to surgical intervention. Due to the high prevalence, there has been an increasing interest in the condition. We highlight the importance of diagnosis and management of CCh to improve patient outcomes and compare the different surgical techniques.
