A full-thickness vertical incision using iris scissors is made at the junction of the lateral 1/3 of the upper and lower eyelid. The incision should be 5mm long.
			*Although incision through the eyelid seems harmful, it. is easily repaired similarly to the ease of repairing the lateral canthus.

			The modified paracanthal or '''“one-snip” procedure''' follows the same vertical incision through the upper or lower eyelid rather than through both top and bottom.<ref>Blandford AD, Young JM, Arepalli S, Li A, Hwang CJ, Perry JD.
