The lateral canthus is a complex region that requires a deep understanding of its structure and physiology for safe and effective oculofacial surgery. Aging, prior surgery, infection, neoplasm, and trauma are just some of the ways the lateral canthus can be altered. In this highly visible area, surgeries involving the lateral canthus impact function and appearance. Below, we detail the anatomy of the lateral canthus, preoperative considerations, and lateral canthal surgical techniques.
