Trichiasis is a common eyelid problem. Eyelashes grow inwards toward the eye. The lashes rub against the cornea, the conjunctiva, and the inner surface of the eyelids and this irritates the eye. Sometimes people get trichiasis and there is no known cause. Anyone can develop trichiasis. It is more common in adults. Some causes of trichiasis include eye infection, inflammation (swelling) of the eyelid, autoimmune conditions, trauma.
Trichiasis treatment involves removing the eyelash, follicle, or both, or redirecting eyelash growth. If many eyelashes are growing towards the eye, surgery can remove them permanently. Ablation surgery uses radio frequencies or lasers to remove the lashes and hair follicles. Other surgical treatments include Electrolysis, Cryosurgery, etc.
