About Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

INTRODUCTION: Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) is a procedure to remove fat and excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. Eyelid surgery can correct drooping upper lids and puffy bags below your eyes. However, it won't remove crow's feet or other wrinkles, eliminate dark circles under your eyes or lift sagging eyebrows. Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery can be done alone, or in conjunction with other facial surgery procedures such as facelift or browlift. Most patients are 35 or older, but if droopy, baggy eyelids run in your family, you may decide to have the eyelid surgery at a younger age.

If your upper eyelids are drooping to the extent where they restrict your vision, your insurance may cover eyelid surgery. Dr. Zevon will advise you if he thinks might be so, and refer you to an ophthalmologist who will test your visual field to document your condition before your blepharoplasty surgery.
