This refers to abnormally positioned eyelashes that grow back toward the eye, touching the cornea or conjunctiva. This can be caused by infection, inflammation, autoimmune conditions, congenital defects, eyelid agenesis and trauma such as burns or eyelid injury. This diagnosis is without a condition in the lower eyelid which the eyelid folds inward. It is very uncomfortable, as the eyelashes constantly rub against the cornea and irritate it.
