What do droopy, saggy eyelids and eyelid
surgery have to do with headaches? While you might think that eyelid surgery or
blepharoplasty is performed for cosmetic reasons to simply to help you look
more youthful, in reality droopy, saggy eyelids can often be a source of
chronic headaches that can be helped by eyelid surgery. According to a study
reported in the journal of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery patients who have droopy saggy eyelids and have
interference of their vision often must furrow their brows and forehead to see
well. This chronic strain on the forehead muscles can result in chronic
headaches. After having the eyelid problems corrected by blepharoplasty eyelid
surgery most patients had improved headache symptoms.
If
you or someone you know suffers from headaches and has droopy, saggy eyelids as
well as experiences blocked vision that requires eyebrow and forehead furrows
to lift the eyelids for unobstructed vision, you may be a candidate for
blepharoplasty eyelid surgery. Please
