Eyelid Correction

Eyelid correction, also known as Blepharoplasty, is a procedure in which excess skin, muscle, or fatty tissue is removed from the eyelids. At Skin & Vision Clinic we perform both upper (Boven-Blepharoplasty) and lower (Onder-Blepharoplasty) eyelid correction.

When is eyelid correction appropriate?

• **Medical:** When drooping eyelids obstruct the visual field or ptosis affects vision.
• **Cosmetic:** When heavy, drooping eyelids create a tired or aged appearance.

The procedure step by step

1. Consultation & planning with Dr. Kloos 2. Procedure under local anaesthesia (45–90 minutes) 3. Recovery period: 1–2 weeks of swelling and bruising 4. Sutures removed after 5–7 days 5. Full recovery after 4–6 weeks
