Entropion is a condition in which the edge of the eyelid turns inward, and often leads to the wrong position of the eyelashes. This condition can cause problems such as corneal infections, corneal injuries, the formation of abnormal tissue on the surface of the eye, and even loss of vision. One study states that the incidence of entropion increases with age. Indonesia has one of the largest elderly population cases with a population reaching 32.3 million people (11.75%). So, this study aims to determine the characteristics of entropion patients at RSU Sriwijaya Palembang for the 2021–2023 period. This research is a cross-sectional descriptive observational (cross sectional), namely by collecting secondary data on entropion patients from medical records at RSU Sriwijaya Palembang for the period 2021–2023 which was collected using total sampling.
