Insight Eye Specialists
There are a variety of procedures that our ophthalmologists can perform to help restore a more youthful appearance while improving function. Eyelid surgeries can be used to treat conditions causing:
- Loose or sagging skin that creates folds or disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid, sometimes impairing vision
- Excess fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the eyelids
- Bags under the eyes
- Drooping lower eyelids that reveal white below the iris
- Excess skin and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid
Having an eyelid problem can be painful, limit your vision and affect your appearance. Many people have eyelid problems such as; droopy eyelids, extra eyelid skin, or eyelids that turn inward or outward.
