Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is a procedure performed to correct defects, deformities, and disfigurations of the eyelids along with improvement of the eye region. It involves the removal of skin, muscles, and fat tissues that causes the eyelids to sag.
People undergo this surgery for both cosmetic concerns and genuine medical concerns. Some are bothered by the way their eyes and face look due to droopy eyelids. Others choose surgery when the sagging skin interrupts the peripheral vision, especially in the upper and outer parts of the visual field.
If your eyelids make your eye look baggy or affect your vision, you can consider blepharoplasty to resolve the problem effectively. You can contact Pristyn Care and learn all about the treatment from our expert plastic surgeons.
Treatment
Diagnosis
To confirm you have blepharoptosis, the doctor will perform a physical examination and ask about your medical history. Once you mention the frequency of drooping and how long it has been happening, the doctor may recommend the following tests to find the cause.
Slit Lamp Exam– A high-intensity light is used to check the internal structure of the eye.
Tensilon Test– This test involves using Tensilon (edrophonium drug) to diagnose if you have myasthenia gravis. This condition can be the potential cause of blepharoptosis.
After finding the cause of eyelid sagging, the doctor will further perform a complete eye exam, visual field testing, and take photographs of the eyelid from different angles to plan the surgery and document the reason for the insurance claim.

On average, eyelid surgery cost in Alappuzha ranges from Rs. 60,000 to Rs. 80,000. The exact cost depends on multiple factors, such as the severity of eyelid ptosis, correction of lower and upper lid, doctor’s fee, hospital’s expense, diagnostics, etc. Due to these factors, the treatment cost will be different for each patient.
The results of a blepharoplasty can last for up to 5 to 7 years or an entire lifetime, depending on the patient. The results of lower lid surgery rarely need to be modified again. But in some cases, patients may have to lift the upper eyelid again.
