| | Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a procedure that can be done on upper eyelids for excessive, wrinkled, drooping skin, or on lower eyelids for excessive skin or fat resulting in puffy bags. | | | Eyelid surgery can be done alone, or can be performed in conjunction with a face-lift, or other facial procedures. | | | The results of eyelid surgery are long lasting; however, keep in mind that your eyes will continue to age through the years. |

| | Blepharitis is treated with hot compresses, with antibiotic ointment, and by cleaning the eyelids with a moist washcloth and then with baby shampoo. | | | If the blepharitis doesn't clear up with treatment or if it seems to be a chronic problem, the patient may have acne rosacea. | | | Entropion usually results from aging, but sometimes can be due to a congenital defect, a spastic eyelid muscle, or a scar on the inside of the lid that could be from surgery, injury, or disease. |
