Eyelid Conditions
Eyelid Conditions
Eyelids shield your eyes from the elements or stimuli that could damage them while also helping prevent them from drying out. Issues with this critical part of the eye can be uncomfortable, make you less confident in your appearance and interfere with your vision. If you’re experiencing eyelid issues, you can trust our doctors to find you the right treatment.
Types of Eyelid Issues
Droopy Eyelids, Lower Eyelid Bags & Excess Eyelid Skin
When eyelids droop too much, it can obstruct your vision. We typically treat this problem with an oculoplastic procedure called a blepharoplasty, which improves vision by reducing the amount of fat or excess skin in the eyelid crease. When this condition starts interfering with your peripheral vision, then insurance covers it.
Styes and Eyelid Bumps
Some styes and eyelid tumors can’t be treated with non-surgical options. However, you can trust our oculoplastic surgeons to have a solution for you.
Ectropion & Entropion
Entropion occurs when the eyelids turn inward, and ectropion occurs when the eyelids turn outwards. Both can cause corneal damage and discomfort. Correcting either condition usually involves a small surgical adjustment.
Discuss your needs with our oculoplastic surgeons during your appointment.
