Free tarsus autogenous graft (FTG) has emerged as a useful biological spacer in lower eyelid elevation. However, it has limited use where a spacer of greater than 4 mm height is required, because at least 4 mm of upper tarsal height must be preserved to maintain upper eyelid rigidity. We describe an augmentation of FTG in its use as a spacer, by way of creating 2 parallel-placed vertical FTG struts, in contrast to interpositioning the FTG horizontally.
