How it Works

Definitions

MRD-1: Distance from the upper eyelid margin to the corneal light reflex (Normal: 4-5 mm)
MRD-2: Distance from the corneal light reflex to the lower eyelid margin (Normal: 5 mm)
Palpebral Fissure (PF): MRD-1 + MRD-2

Clinical Interpretation

MRD-1 < 4mm typically defines ptosis. Low MRD-1 with a high MRD-2 may suggest eyelid retraction (e.g., in Graves disease).
