Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Did you know that cosmetic blepharoplasty can lead to or exacerbate preexisting dry eye disease (DED)?
Cosmetic and practical benefits have contributed to the widespread appeal of eyelid lift surgery. However, DED issues can develop or worsen after aesthetic eyelid treatments, leaving patients frustrated and unhappy despite the outstanding surgical outcomes. Surgeons can improve patient satisfaction and reduce ocular discomfort from DED by proactively screening for and treating it, managing meibomian gland dysfunction, and making minor adjustments to the surgical procedure.
Here's an article that shares a quick overview of preoperative dry eye evaluation essentials before blepharoplasty and post-operative DED management. |
