3. What is the Common Cause of Entropion?

Entropion usually has a genetic cause. It is a rare condition among young people and children and is generally seen in people over the age of 60. It usually occurs because the muscles that control the eyelids have weakened or relaxed with age and the skin is losing its collagen content.
