Abstract
Spontaneous globe subluxation (SGS) is an uncommon condition wherein the equator of the globe protrudes anteriorly beyond the eyelid aperture causing severe lagophthalmos, proptosis and exposure keratopathy. SGS can lead to an emotional disturbance leading to anxiety and fear, thereby affecting one's quality of life. The patients might often be able to reduce the globe on their own, but permanent measures must be taken to prevent recurrence and vision-threatening sequelae of SGS. We present this case due to its rarity and to highlight the importance of a simple, cost-effective and cosmetically acceptable bilateral tarsorrhaphy in management of SGS.
