Severe ectropion in lamellar ichthyosis managed medically with oral acitretin

We report a neonate with severe, bilateral, congenital ectropion and eclabium managed using oral retinoids. Both corneas were protected with topical antibiotics and lubricating eyedrops and eye ointments. At 12‐month follow‐up, the child was doing well, with no ectropion or corneal opacity.
