What is another word for Trichiasis?
Pronunciation: [tɹˈɪkɪˌasiz] (IPA) 
Trichiasis is a medical condition where eyelashes grow in an abnormal direction and brush against the eye's surface, causing irritation and discomfort. Synonyms for trichiasis include "eyelash syndrome," "entropion of eyelashes," "distichiasis," and "inverted eyelashes." Distichiasis is a rare form of trichiasis where there are two rows of eyelashes instead of just one. There are several treatment options available, including plucking or trimming the eyelashes, applying topical ointments, and surgery. If left untreated, trichiasis can lead to more severe complications such as corneal ulcers, scarring, and vision loss. It is important to seek medical attention if you experience any symptoms of trichiasis.
