Dr Eade’s goal for surgery is to create a more refreshed and natural appearance without compromising the function of the eyelids. Surgery is tailored to each individual patient.
Although most eyelid lumps are benign, accurate diagnosis and early recognition of sinister lesions leads to improved patient outcomes.
Most eyelid lesions are benign, ranging from cysts, age-related warts (seborrheic keratosis), chalazion (blocked oil glands) or moles (naevi).
Even lesions that are benign can cause eye irritation and obscure vision.
Features that should prompt further assessment include gradual enlargement, lack of resolution, ulceration (breakdown of the surface), irregular borders, loss of lashes or dilated blood vessels.
Eyelid reduction or blepharoplasty removes excessive or redundant skin and repositions pockets of fat within the eyelids.
Blepharoplasty can be used to
Ectropion
An ectropion is a drooping eyelid that rolls away from the eye. It can cause an unsightly red appearance. Symptoms include eye irritation, dryness or watering of the eye.
Entropion
Entropion is when the eyelid rolls inward and causes the eyelashes to rub on the surface of the eye. This causes eye irritation, discomfort, watering or redness of the eye.
What is Botox?
Botulinum toxin is a protein produced by a bacteria called Clostridium botulinum.
Botulinum toxin works by paralysing the muscle it is injected into.
It is widely used to treat conditions such as blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm or facial palsy.
