METHODS: This interventional study was done in three tertiary care eye hospitals in Bangladesh from July 2014 to June 2020. We obtained autologous fascia lata for the correction of congenital ptosis with poor levator function (⩽4 mm), covering the ciliary staphyloma, repair of the extruded implant following anophthalmic socket surgery, and was also used to wrap the orbital implant after enucleation. Preserved FL was used only for children before 6 years of age for the treatment of congenital ptosis.

RESULTS: Out of 60 subjects, 38 (63.3%) were male and 22 (36.7%) were female. Autogenous fascia lata was used for frontalis brow suspension (FBS) in 25 (41.67%) patients of congenital ptosis with poor levator function, as patch graft in ciliary staphyloma (11 cases, 18.3%), to wrap orbital implant following enucleation in intraocular malignancies (nine cases, 15%), to repair of implant extrusion following evisceration (five cases, 8.3%), and as fascial sling to correct recurrent paralytic ectropion (one case, 1.67%). Allogeneic or preserved fascia lata was used to correct congenital ptosis in patients less than 6 years of age (nine cases, 15%). Mean follow-up time was 5.32 months.
