Other causes of ectropion are scarring, burns, trauma (called cicatricial ectropion), spasm of the orbicularis muscle, which may affect either the upper or lower eyelid, or paralysis of the orbicularis muscle in which only the lower eyelid is affected.
It is possible that there is nothing wrong with your water heater. There is a pressure relief valve on top that may be releasing water because your primary water pressure reduction valve for the house is worn out. The fact that the leak is intermittent suggests this.
Important: The water heater should be located in an. area where leakage of the tank or connections will not. result in damage to the area adjacent to the water. heater or to lower floors of the structure. Due to the. normal corrosive action of the water, the tank will. eventually leak after an extended period of time.
