An Outcomes Assessment of the Utility of Belladerm Acellular Dermal Allograft in Ocular Lower Lid Retraction Repair

May 7, 2014 updated by: Kenneth Morgenstern, MD, SGM Physician Research Consortium

Use of Non-Cadaveric Human Acellular Dermal Tissue (BellaDerm®) in Lower Eyelid Retraction Repair

The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the efficacy and longevity of a Human-derived, non-cadaveric, acellular dermal implant (BellaDerm) as a posterior spacer graft in the correction of lower eyelid retraction, taking into consideration issues associated with the use of acelular dermis such as contraction and potential regression of repairs.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pre and Post operative margin reflex distance 2 MRD 2
Time Frame: 1 year
Pre and postoperative margin reflex distance 2 (MRD2) and inferior scleral show (ISS) was measured of each eyelid, and success was defined as a positive eyelid elevation and decrease in inferior scleral show. Long- term stability beyond 12 months was evaluated.
1 year

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
