A Simple, Minimally Invasive Method for Creation of the Superior Palpebral Fold in Asians With the Modified Continuous Buried Tarsal Stitch: A Joint Assessment From Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and Chengdu, China [Surgical Technique]

A simple, minimally invasive stitch method to construct the superior palpebral fold in Asian upper eyelids is described.
