Introduction: Congenital eversion of the eyelid is a rare palpebral pathology, the first-line treatment for which is the conservative method consisting of the use of artificial tears, antibiotics and bilateral inversion of the eyelids. Observation: We present a clinical observation of a female neonate ten hours old, referred from a peripheral health centre for management of a bilateral upper eyelid malformation. Ophthalmological examination: revealed bilateral, symmetrical eversion of the upper eyelids in which the diagnosis of congenital bilateral eversion of the eyelids was accepted after ruling out congenital ectropion and upper eyelid haemangioma. Conclusion: Conservative treatment was used, which gave a good result within 10 days.
