Un conformateur permettant un jeu palpébral normal précèdera le nouveau moulage effectué dès la cicatrisation. Lorsque la rétraction est massive et intéresse toute la cavité, le but de la technique est de reformer une cavité par une expansion à l'aide de grandes greffes muqueuses tapissant toute sa face interne. Une tarsorraphie en avant d'un gros conformateur, pendant quelques semaines, permettra à la cavité de cicatriser en bonne forme. 3, record 2, French, - conformateur
