A clinical case of a patient with floppy eyelid syndrome who underwent a resection of the lower eyelid for a neoplasm is presented. Despite of the large volume of tissue removed and given his current state, it was possible to close the defect by direct tissue matching. Thus, patients with floppy eyelid syndrome have an advantage in case of removal of large volume neoplasms, which in the future do not require the use of complex plastics.
