The semicircle flap is an excellent method for reconstructing upper an d lower eyelid defects. The procedure may be combined with recognized techniques such as skin grafts, tarsal flaps, and other surgical manip ulations. Five such additions to the semicircle flap are described. Th ese combined techniques can expand the range of the procedure, increas e its versatility, and improve the results.
