Abstract

Congenital upper eyelid eversion (CUEE) is a rare ocular condition, typically presenting bilaterally, with few docu mented cases of unilateral involvement. We report a case of unilateral CUEE in a 3-hour-old male neonate, also presenting with bilateral clubfoot. Conservative management, including saline irrigation and antibiotic eye drops, led to full resolution of the eyelid eversion within five days. This case highlights the successful management of uni lateral CUEE and its rare association with other congenital anomalies, suggesting a potential genetic origin.
