Eyelid Surgery

In addition to ocular surgery, Dr. Stuckey also performs a variety of procedures on the eyelids. These include:

• Blepharoplasty – removal of excess upper eyelid skin and fat to improve vision and appearance.
• Repair of lid rotation – various forces can cause the eyelids to rotate inward, rotate outward, or sag excessively. This can result in eye irritation, drying, excessive tearing, and abnormal appearance. A variety of procedures can be performed to return the lids to their natural position.
• Removal of lid lesions – Cysts, growths, infections, and skin tags can occur on both the upper and lower eyelids. These can usually be removed in the office under local anesthesia.

Although these problems often affect the appearance, the vast majority of them are covered by insurance so be sure to mention these issues to your doctor.
