The inversion of the edge of an eyelid is called "entropion." This condition occurs when the eyelid folds inward, causing the eyelashes to rub against the eyeball, which can lead to irritation, discomfort, and potential damage to the cornea. Entropion can be caused by age, scarring, or other factors, and it often requires medical treatment to correct.
