Eyelid surgery work

• Upper blepharoplasty. For eyelid skin/tissue obstructing vision: incision in the natural upper-lid crease, excess skin and fatty tissue removed, muscle and orbital septum tightened as needed; if the lower lids are also loose, a lid-tightening procedure can be added, which increases swelling and lengthens recovery (blepharoplasty).
• Asian blepharoplasty (double eyelid surgery). Reshapes an eyelid without a natural crease (an epicanthic fold, "single eyelid") to create an upper-lid crease ("double eyelid") (asian-eyelid-surgery).
• Lower eyelid blepharoplasty. Corrects lower-lid bags; performed at an outpatient surgery center (same page).
• Ptosis repair. For eyelid drooping from a weakness or separation of the levator muscle; the site notes it does not involve excess skin (dermatochalasis), and describes a "brief surgical procedure" to correct it (ptosis).
• Ectropion repair. Lid tightening for an outward-turning eyelid; occasionally a small skin graft is needed (ectropion-entropion).
• Entropion repair. A routine surgical procedure under local anesthesia for an inward-turning eyelid (same page).
