Medical Eyelid Issues

Returning beauty and function to the eyes and face

Certain eyelid conditions—such as ectropion (outward turning of the eyelid), entropion (inward turning), trichiasis (misdirected lashes), tearing problems, or thyroid eye disease—can affect not only appearance but also comfort, vision, and long-term eye health. During your consultation, your surgeon will carefully evaluate your eyelid anatomy and ocular function, review your medical history, and discuss the symptoms you’re experiencing.

We’ll explain the surgical and non-surgical treatment options available, outline what you can expect from recovery, and ensure you understand the goals of treatment: restoring proper eyelid function, protecting the eye surface, and improving comfort. Our priority is to create a safe, effective plan that supports both your health and your quality of life.

A note on medical referrals: expect a call within a week after we receive the fax from your eye doctor or PCP for a medical issue.
