Defects of eyelids can be since birth (Coloboma) or can result due to trauma or
excision of tumors of eyelids.

Defects of eye lids can be small / large (depending on involvement of eyelid) or
they can be superficial of full thickness ( depending on depth of involvement).

Smaller defects can be closed primarily after some release of skin (simple closure). Superficial wounds can also be closed with full thickness skin grafts (usually from opposite eye lid).
