Pretarsal hypertrphy is a rare condition in which the pretarsal muscles of the eyelid become enlarged. This can cause the eyelid to appear wrinkled and enlarged, and may also lead to Eyelid ptosis (drooping). The exact cause of Pretarsal hypertrophy is unknown, but it is thought to be due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
While this condition is benign and not associated with any health risks, many patients are seeking treatment for aesthetic reasons.
Singapore is a country that is known for its humid climate. The high humidity levels in Singapore can cause pretarsal hypertrophy, which is the enlargement of the pretarsal glands. These glands are located in the eyelids and help to secrete oil that lubricates the eyes. When the humidity levels are high, the glands produce more oil than usual, causing the eyelids to swell. In some cases, the enlargement can be so severe that it interferes with vision.
Primary Pretarsal hypertrophy is believed to be caused by an underlying genetic predisposition.
Secondary Pretarsal hypertrophy is typically the result of another condition, such as thyroid disease or diabetes.
