                                | Purpose: | 
                                    A meta-analysis to assess the effect of implant material on success rates and complication rates of frontalis sling. |  
                                | Methods: | 
                                    Meta-analysis from 1955 through April 2015. total of 139 articles (34% of original)were included. • Definition
of success was that chosen by the authors of each study. |  
                                | Results: | 
                                    this study analyzed 5056 eyelids in 139 articles. 21 unique
materials were represented, though ten materials were excluded as they were only used in a single study • The
materials with the highest success rates overall included
autogenous tendon, autogenous temporalis fascia, autogenous
fascia lata, and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE,
eg.Gore-‐Tex, Teflon) These results were maintained when
analyzing only studies with median follow up greater than
six months. |  
                                | Conclusion: | 
                                    Despite its high success rates, autogenous fascia
lata has high complication rates.
