About Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a specialized oculoplastic procedure performed by an ophthalmologist to correct functional and cosmetic concerns of the eyelids. This surgery involves the precise removal or repositioning of excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It is performed to improve vision obstructed by drooping upper lids (ptosis) or to address puffy bags under the eyes that create a tired appearance. As a delicate procedure focused on the critical eye area, an ophthalmologist's expertise ensures optimal aesthetic results while prioritizing eye health, safety, and visual function. The outcome is a more refreshed, alert look and often a significant enhancement in the peripheral field of vision.

Who is this surgery for?

Dermatochalasis: Excess, sagging skin on the upper eyelids that impairs peripheral vision.
Blepharochalasis: Recurrent eyelid swelling leading to thin, wrinkled skin.
Ptosis: Drooping of the upper eyelid margin itself, which can be corrected concurrently.
Lower eyelid bags (festoons) caused by protruding orbital fat.
Lax or wrinkled lower eyelid skin.
Cosmetic desire to reduce a tired or aged appearance around the eyes.

How to prepare

Comprehensive ophthalmic examination to assess eye health, tear film, and visual fields.
Detailed discussion of surgical goals, techniques, and realistic expectations.
Discontinuation of blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen) as advised by the surgeon.
Arranging for someone to drive you home after the procedure and assist for the first 24 hours.
Avoiding smoking and alcohol for at least two weeks prior to surgery to promote healing.
Fasting (no food or drink) for a specified period before the procedure if general anesthesia is planned.

Risks & possible complications

Temporary side effects: Swelling, bruising, dryness, irritation, and sensitivity to light.
Asymmetry in healing or eyelid height.
Difficulty fully closing the eyes (lagophthalmos), potentially leading to dryness.
Infection or bleeding at the incision site.
Visible scarring (though incisions are typically placed in natural creases).
Rare but serious risks: Injury to eye muscles, vision changes, or retrobulbar hemorrhage (a medical emergency).
Possibility of under-correction or need for a revision procedure.

Recovery & hospital stay

Use prescribed antibiotic ointments and cold compresses to reduce swelling and prevent infection.
Keep head elevated, even during sleep, for the first few days to minimize swelling.
Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and bending over for 1-2 weeks.
Wear dark sunglasses to protect eyes from sun and wind.
Avoid rubbing the eyes and wearing contact lenses until approved by the doctor.
Attend all follow-up appointments for suture removal (if non-dissolvable) and progress monitoring.
Most bruising and swelling subside within 10-14 days, with final results becoming apparent over several months.

Typical hospital stay: 0-1 days (Typically outpatient)
Expected recovery time: 10-14 days for social recovery, 4-6 weeks for full activity
