EYELID SURGERYBlepharoplasty Eyelid surgery can be done to correct drooping upper eyelids, puffy fat pads in the upper and lower eyelids and sagging lower eyelid skin. Technically known as blepharoplasty (blef-r-o-plas-tee), this procedure involves removal of fat and excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. In some cases, the lower lid itself is tightened at the outer corner of the eye socket to correct laxity of the tone of the lower eyelid (canthoplasty). Eyelid surgery does not address crow's feet lines, dark pigmentation of the lower eyelids, or drooping eyebrow skin.Eyelid surgery is frequently done at the same time as other procedures, such as a facelift or brow lift, and can be combined with laser or chemical resurfacing to smooth skin wrinkles. 
PATIENT PHOTOS
To see examples of Dr. Parson's patients and their results, please click here to proceed. Viewer discretion is advised.  Dr. Parson will take a medical history, with particular emphasis on conditions, which may impact your candidacy for eyelid surgery. Underlying medical conditions such as high blood pressure, bleeding disorders, heart disease, diabetes, thyroid disorders, or a history of dryness of your eyes, are important issues which can increase the risks of eyelid surgery. The medications you take may need to be altered prior to surgery, so be prepared to provide specific dosing information at the time of the consultation. Please inform us if you have any history of allergies to medications. Let us know also if you wear any corrective lenses, or if you have had prior eyelid surgery or eye muscle surgery. The doctor will do a thorough eyelid examination, and will assess other related issues which impact the perception of eyelid aging, such as the effect of the eyebrows and the skin itself. A vision exam and sometimes a test of tear function will be done. He will discuss the relevance of all of these issues as they relate to your overall appearance. Dr. Parson will answer all of your questions to the best of his ability. On occasion, the doctor may feel that there are indications for you to seek consultation with a board-certified ophthalmologist; he will make this referral if necessary. 1 | 2 | 3 | Next  Are you ready for cosmetic surgery?There are 5 questions you should ask yourself before committing to cosmetic or reconstructive surgery.
