Restoration of eyelid closure after facial palsy

Lid chains can be adapted perfectly to the anatomy of the eye, helping to prevent postsurgical complications and significantly improving patient quality of life. They have very good tissue compatibility and excellent cosmetic results, resulting in high patient satisfaction. Lid chains are completely reversible without complications and can be combined with other surgical eyelid corrective procedures. Haag-Streit UK is an Authorised UK Distributor of the SPIGGLE & THEIS lid chain in the UK.

Berghaus /Schrom lid chains

The Berghaus/Schrom lid chain is a flexible implant enabling optimum pre-tarsal alignment and long-term flexibility. The implants have the design of a chain to smoothly adapt to the form of the tarsus.

Biocompatible

Manufactured from platinum and iridium, the lid chain has very good tissue compatibility. The combination of the materials and the chain form is reflected in its above-average performance results and lower rate of complications.

Test weights

The appropriate weight implant can be determined by pre-operative fitting using test weights, which are glued to the upper lid. The test weights are made of stainless steel, as they are not for implantation, and are reusable.

Safe with MRI & CT scans

SPIGGLE & THEIS lid implants are MR conditional so a patient can be safely scanned as long as the scanning conditions are appropriate.
