Center Cosmetic Surgery

I have a lazy eyelid. Is there a surgery to correct this?

My left eyelid doesn't open as far as my right. Is there someone out there who is able to fix this? How much would it cost? It's just my eyelid, not my eye. It's not horrible bad, some people dont even notice but I do when I look in the mirror. It just seems to throw off the symmetry of my whole face.

8. My Brother had a lazy eye, My mom wanted it to get fixed before he went to school and got it fix by surgery. A place in portland, oregon called lourdes optical center.
9. I would first contact your eye doctor and see what he says. He could refer you to someone. I know plastic surgeons could aslo fix it.
10. Yes... eyelid surgery by a plastic surgeon.
11. ~upper eyelid lift, tou'd have to talk to cosmetic surgeon in your area~
12. There are doctors that specialize in oculo-plastic surgery. They are opthalmologists with additional training in plastic surgery. Some of them specialize in eyelid disorders. You will need to go to a regular opthalmologist for evaluation and referral. Unless your visual fields are impaired this is considered cosmetic and not covered by insurance.
13. Yes, you would need to see an oculoplastic surgeon. It depends on the cause, but there are various techniques that can treat this that are not over expensive and although surgical, can be performed under a local anasesthetic with or without sedation. HTH : )
14. you need to ask an eye doctor
15. Yes it can be done. I dont know about cost, do a web search.
