Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of blepharoplasty surgery to create eyelid folds using layer anaesthesia to treat excess eyelid skin and irregular eyelid folds at the Department of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of the eyes and face, National Eye Hospital. Subjects and research methods: Descriptive, interventional, uncontrolled study on 40 eyes of 20 patients diagnosed with no irregular eyelid folds/blebs, excess eyelid skin who wanted to have surgery. The results of the study on the body shape are based on the RES scale (eyelid height, crease depth, crease shape), VAS pain scale and patient satisfaction. Results: Mean age 38.2±7.5, 100% female, postoperative visual acuity did not change compared to before surgery. The rate of successful surgery after 1 month and after 3 months is 80% and 90%. No patient failed. Average VAS score 4.3. 80% of patients are satisfied and very satisfied with the surgical results. Conclusion: The technique of layer anaesthesia allows pain control, minimizes the amount of anaesthetic used in surgery, reduces swelling after surgery and patient satisfaction.
