Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department: recovery time of blepharoptosis surgery

Eyelid ptosis is a common eye problem, usually caused by eyelid muscle relaxation or damage. This situation will not only affect the appearance, but also may cause visual problems. As a professional ophthalmic hospital, Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department has advanced equipment and a senior medical team to provide surgical treatment for blepharoptosis and help patients recover their confident appearance and good visual function.

Operation method and process

The specific methods of blepharoptosis surgery include upper eyelid lifting surgery and lower eyelid lifting surgery. The upper eyelid lifting operation mainly improves the position of the upper eyelid by adjusting the upper eyelid muscles and removing redundant skin tissue. Lower eyelid lifting surgery is to move or tighten the lower eyelid muscles to raise the position of the lower eyelid.

Before the operation, the doctor will conduct a comprehensive eye examination to ensure that the patient's eye health is suitable for the operation. Local anesthesia is generally used for operation, and patients will not feel pain during operation. The operation time is usually short, usually within 1-2 hours.

After the operation, the doctor will give the patient some advice, such as avoiding strenuous exercise, not rubbing the eyes, and paying attention to rest. The doctor will also arrange a follow-up visit for the patient to ensure the effect of postoperative recovery and personal recovery progress.

Recovery time and considerations

The recovery time after surgery varies from person to person, but most patients can return to normal life within one week after surgery. At the beginning of the operation, the patient may feel eye swelling, blood stasis and slight pain. These discomfort will gradually reduce within one to two weeks. The wound after surgery is generally healed within one week, and no suture is required.

During recovery, patients need to pay attention to eye hygiene to avoid eye irritation, especially at the surgical site. At the same time, patients also need to avoid excessive eye use and provide sufficient rest time to promote eye healing and recovery.

Patients also need to visit again regularly, and doctors will adjust the recovery plan according to individual conditions. Generally, the recovery period within 1-2 months after the operation is the most critical period. After that, the patient's eye condition will continue to improve until it finally returns to the ideal state.
