- Entropion (inward-turning eyelids that rub against the eye)

- Trauma repair and congenital eyelid abnormalities
When Should You See an Eyelid Surgery Specialist?
If you’re experiencing drooping or misaligned eyelids that obstruct your vision, cause irritation, expose the surface of the eye, interfere with blinking, or affect your daily comfort, you may benefit from an eyelid surgery consultation. At NEOS in Las Vegas, NV, our fellowship-trained oculoplastic surgeon evaluates both the functional and cosmetic causes of eyelid concerns to determine the most appropriate treatment for your needs.
During your consultation, NEOS assesses your eyelid position, visual function, eye-surface health, symptoms, and medical history before recommending surgery. When an eyelid condition affects your vision or eye health, additional testing and clinical photography may be performed to help document medical necessity for insurance consideration.
Eyelid Surgery FAQ
What symptoms may indicate an eyelid problem?
Symptoms may include blocked peripheral vision, eye irritation, eyelashes rubbing against the eye, excessive dryness or tearing, difficulty closing the eyelids, or eyelids that turn inward or outward.
What is the difference between medical eyelid surgery and blepharoplasty?
Medical eyelid surgery treats conditions that affect vision, eye protection, comfort, or eyelid function. Blepharoplasty is commonly used to address excess eyelid skin, puffiness, or other cosmetic concerns, although some procedures may have both functional and cosmetic benefits.
Why choose an oculoplastic surgeon for eyelid surgery?
Oculoplastic surgeons are ophthalmologists with additional fellowship training focused on the eyelids, orbit, tear ducts, and surrounding facial structures. This training helps them balance eyelid appearance with eye function and vision protection.
