THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE EYELID IS CORRECTED
Providing information about eyelid surgeries, Prof. Dr. Ayşe Yağcı: “This operation can be performed not only for aesthetic concerns but also to improve vision. Eyelid drooping or bagging may prevent the eye from opening normally or the lids from closing completely. In this case, surgery can improve vision by opening the visual field or improving the functionality of the eyelids. In particular, sagging of the upper eyelid can cause eye dryness or eye fatigue in some cases. In this case, the aim of the surgery is to preserve eye health by correcting the functionality of the eyelid. "Surgeries performed due to congenital anomalies, eyelid abnormalities or structural disorders ensure that the eyelid functions correctly," he said.
Prof. Dr. Yağcı continued: “The purpose of the surgery can generally be summarized as improving the patient's appearance or protecting eye health. Eyelid surgeries are performed by a specialist doctor and are carried out in accordance with a treatment plan determined according to the person's individual condition and needs.
