Résumé
In cases of significant prematurity, neonates born with eyelid fusion can undergo spontaneous eyelid disjunction. Here, the authors present such a case, along with ultrasound findings shortly before eyelid separation. All protected patient information extracted for this report was done so in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. This report was prepared in accordance with the tenants of the Declaration of Helsinki.
