 Even after a good night's rest, it can be hard to feel energetic when you see tired, drooping eyes looking back at you in the mirror. For many people, the effects of aging are commonly noticed around the eyes. As we age, we begin to notice that our upper and lower eyelids start to sag. This sagging often occurs because eyelid skin thins out, loses tone, and becomes more susceptible to the unyielding force of gravity, which causes eyes to look smaller. This makes faces look older and more tired. In many situations this eyelid/brow sagging can interfere with your vision. You may notice feeling more tired after you read or at the end of a long day. This can occur from constantly working to raise your eyelids.
If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Each year hundreds of women and men choose eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to help restore their vision and give them a more youthful appearance. Blepharoplasty is designed to enhance the performance and appearance of the eyelids by eliminating excess skin from the eyelids, which may interfere with peripheral vision, cause ocular irritation, or be unsightly. This procedure can rejuvenate the entire face. Upper lid blepharoplasty may increase the superior visual field and allow for more effective use of eye makeup. Lower lid blepharoplasty removes the fullness or "bags" from the lower eyelids. Blepharoplasty can be done alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as a brow lift or ptosis (drooping of upper eyelid) repair.
 The Eye Center offers a variety of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures for the eyelids and eyebrows. Procedures are performed on an outpatient basis in the Bloomington Surgery Center. These are typically performed under local anesthesia. After just a couple of weeks, patients find that their eyes look bigger and brighter, giving a more youthful appearance to the eyes and face. Results like these have caused blepharoplasty to be the second most popular facial cosmetic procedure in the United States.
