Abstract
PURPOSE: To provide an introduction to a new device, the Stamler lid splint (SLS), a disposable appliance designed to create a temporary total therapeutic ptosis. We also describe the indications for its use and analyze its limitations. METHODS: The utility of the SLS in effecting complete ptosis was examined in 33 patients. Outcome parameters examined were mean duration of (induced) ptosis, success (and failure) rate, and the incidence of side effects. RESULTS: The most common indications for using the SLS were lid closure abnormalities (n = 6) and epithelial defects after keratoplasty (n = 5). The induced ptosis lasted for a mean of 3.3 days (range, 1.5-6). The success rate of the SLS in achieving a total ptosis was 90.9%. Failure was attributed to the presence of atypical lid or orbital anatomy. No patient developed a complication specifically related to the SLS itself. CONCLUSIONS: The SLS is an inexpensive, quick, and technically straightforward means of treating a variety of ocular surface disorders in compliant patients with normal lid and orbital anatomy. The SLS is best suited to patients who require short-term therapy only.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
