What is Eyelid Surgery?
As the name suggests, eyelid surgery is a form of surgery that is also known as blepharoplasty. During eyelid surgery, either the lower lids, upper lids, or both can be worked on to improve the look and function of the eyes.
Do You Need Eyelid Surgery?
Eyelid surgery can be beneficial for several different conditions. Not only can eyelid surgery improve your eyes aesthetically, but it can also improve your vision if excess skin is covering your eyes. Some of the following conditions may require eyelid surgery:
- Drooping eyelids
- Sagging lower eyelids that reveal the whites of your eyes
- Excess skin and wrinkles
- Fatty deposits
- Puffiness in the eye caused by fat deposits
- Bags under your eyes
Our ophthalmology specialists will help you determine if eyelid surgery is necessary and if you are a good candidate for treatment.

Like all other surgeries, eyelid surgery carries with it a few risks including:
- Infections
- Dryness of the eyes
- Bleeding
- Risks with anesthesia

- Sensitivity to light
- Scaring
