|wketx=Trichiasis (/trɪkiˈeɪsɪs/ trik-ee-AY-sis, /trɪˈkaɪəsɪs/ tri-KEYE-ə-sis) a medical term for abnormally positioned eyelashes that grow back toward the eye, touching the cornea or conjunctiva. This can be caused by infection, inflammation, autoimmune conditions, congenital defects, eyelid agenesis and trauma such as burns or eyelid injury. It is the leading cause of infectious blindness in the world. Standard treatment involves removal or destruction of the affected eyelashes with electrology, specialized laser, or surgery. In many cases, removal of the affected eyelashes with forceps resolves the symptoms, although the problem often recurs in a few weeks when the eyelashes regrow. Severe cases may cause scarring of the cornea and lead to vision loss if untreated. Mild cases may not require treatment.

|wkdetx=Trichiasis (altgriechisch τριχίασις von [[τριχίας]] trichias ‚[[Haariger]]‘ zu [[θρίξ]] [[thrix]] ‚[[Haar]]‘) ist schon bei Galen der medizinische Fachausdruck für ein Wimpernscheuern, das Reiben von Wimpern auf der Hornhaut oder der Bindehaut des Auges. Ursache kann ein fehlgerichtetes Wachstum einzelner Wimpern oder einer ganzen Wimpernreihe sein, wie bei der Distichiasis, aber auch eine Einwärtswendung des Lids. Dabei kann das vermehrte Zukneifen des Auges als Reaktion auf den Reiz die Einwärtswendung im Sinne eines circulus vitiosus weiter verstärken.

|wkestx=La triquiasis es una enfermedad ocular que consiste en una alteración de las pestañas, las cuales crecen de forma anómala en dirección al ojo, lo que ocasiona que rocen con la córnea y la conjuntiva, provocando lagrimeo, erosiones, irritación e incluso úlceras corneales. El borde del párpado tiene una posición normal, a diferencia de lo que ocurre en el entropión, donde el borde del párpado está plegado hacia el interior del ojo.

|wkfrtx=Un trichiasis est une inflection des cils vers l'œil, ce qui provoque une irritation de la cornée. Il peut être congénital ou acquis. Il est généralement associé à un entropion (bascule du bord de la paupière vers l'intérieur de l'œil), parfois lié à l'âge.

|wkpttx=A triquíase é uma doença que consiste no desvio do crescimento das pestanas para dentro, ou seja, em direcção ao globo ocular. Pode ser congénito ou adquirido e a pálpebra normalmente conserva a sua posição normal. A consequência mais comum é a irritação permanente da conjuntiva bulbar e da córnea, podendo resultar em conjuntivite ou ceratite.
