Possible Complications :As with any surgery, patients sometimes react to anesthesia or may experience infections. Some Blepharoplasty patients experience double for blurred vision. This usually only lasts for a few days. Eyelids will swell for a brief period of time, and small whiteheads may appear after stitches are removed. In some cases, the whiteheads need to be removed with a needle. Because both sides of a person's face are not identical, the eyes may not be perfectly symmetrical after they heal. Scarring may be different for each eye. Since the muscles of the eye are sometimes corrected, some individuals may experience difficulty closing their eyes. This may be permanent in rare cases. Another rare occurrence is the drooping or sagging of lower eyelids, called ectropion. With this complication, additional surgery will probably be needed.
