The anatomic variations in the upper eyelid Few. J, Ellis. M in Neligan, PC. Blepharoplasty. Plastic Surgery 3rd edition. Washington: Elsevier, 2013
Anatomy • Topography periorbital region (eyelid crease) • Superior tarsus is 10 mm in height at its center • Inferior tarsus 3.8-4.5 mm in vertical height
Orbicularis Oculi Muscle • Divided into three subdivisions • Pretarsal muscle • Preseptal muscle • Orbital muscle • Orbital septum • Fascial membrane that separates eyelid structures to deeper orbital structures • Neither thin nor elastic would make analogous to weakened fascia
Anatomical comparison betweenOriental and Caucasian eyelid Deep set eye Average depth Oriental
Oriental eyelid • Supratarsal fold is absent • Eyelid thick and hangs down like pseudoptosis • Palpebral fissure is narrow • Eyelashes point downward • Plica mongolia is present in 50% of cases Khoo Boo-Chai
Preoperative Evaluation • General Condition • Clinical history and physical examination • Patient personality, expectations for surgery • Psychological assessment • Eye Function • Visus, Intraocular pressure, Muscle Function • Frame of the eyelid • Forehead (ptosis, wrinkles), shape &position eyebrow • Cheeks and depth of nasolabial folds • Upper orbital rim
Preoperative Evaluation • Tarsal plate • Orbicularisoculi Stasior lid distention test Flower eyelid retraction test • Skin and subcutaneous Pinch test Squinch test
Surgical technique • Anesthesia • Blepharoplasty is most frequently done under local anesthesia • Use lidocain 1% with 1:100 - 200.000 epinephrine with 27 gauge needle
Surgical technique • Basic surgical technique Think in terms of three layer: • Skin (excision of redundancy) • Muscle (excision of an appropiate strip of orbicularis oculi) • Fat (removal of an appropiate amount of orbital fat if indicated)
Blepharoplasty Blepharoplasty superior - simple skin excision - Anchor blepharoplasty - Levatoraponeurosis plication Blepharoplasty inferior - transconjungtival blepharoplasty - transcutaneous blepharoplasty - simple skin excision - lateral canthal anchoring - Kuntz-simanovsky
Surgery marking Upper blepharoplasty Lower blepharoplasty Codner MA, Ford DT. Blepharoplasty. Grab and Smith Plastic Surgery 6th edition. Philladelpia: Raven, 2007
Upper Blepharoplasty • Skin Marking • Supratarsal fold located at different distances from individual, varying 7 – 12 mm. • There is no uniform distance to locate the line • Usually 8-12 mm above centrally, 5-6 mm above medially and laterally canthal crease

Lower Blepharoplasty • Objectives • Correction of periorbital fat or skin, or both • Correction of 3 components lower lids: • Orbicularis muscle • The tarsus • The orbital septum • Transconjunctival approach • Skin Muscle Flap Technique

Post-operative care • Bandaging of the eyes following operation is not essential • Ice compresses (first 24 hrs to reduces edema and echymosis) • Topical antibiotic ointment and oral during fifth day • Suture removed on 4-5 post op • Squeezing eye lids after 1 week • Makeup on about 10 post-op
Complications Short Term • Loss of Vision • Retrobulbar Hematoma • Wound Dehicense • Long Term • Dry eye Syndrome • Hypertrophic scar and Keloid • Epiphora • Infection • Asymmetry
