The delicate skin around the eyes is often one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. Over time, excess skin and weakened muscles can cause drooping eyelids, leading to a tired appearance and, in some cases, obstructed vision. Blepharoplasty and ptosis correction are two procedures designed to address these concerns, restoring both function and appearance.

What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. This treatment is commonly performed for cosmetic reasons but can also be functional if sagging eyelids begin to interfere with sight. Patients often choose blepharoplasty to create a more youthful and refreshed look while maintaining the natural contour of the eyes.
What is Ptosis Correction?
Ptosis occurs when the upper eyelid droops due to weakness or dysfunction of the levator muscle, responsible for lifting the eyelid. Unlike blepharoplasty, which primarily addresses excess skin and fat, ptosis correction focuses on repositioning or tightening the muscle to restore normal eyelid function. In more severe cases, drooping can partially cover the pupil, affecting vision and causing strain over time.

What are the benefits?
Who Can Benefit from These Procedures?
Blepharoplasty and ptosis correction are commonly sought by individuals who experience:
- A heavy or tired-looking appearance due to sagging eyelids.
- Vision obstruction caused by excess eyelid skin or muscle weakness.
- Difficulty keeping their eyes fully open.
- Puffiness or under-eye bags affecting their overall facial expression.
For many patients, these procedures not only improve vision but also enhance confidence by rejuvenating the eye area. During a consultation at OCL Vision, our experts assess your needs and recommend the most appropriate treatment to achieve your goals.
The Difference Between Blepharoplasty and Ptosis Correction
Though both procedures address eyelid concerns, they differ in purpose and technique. Blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat, refining the eyelid’s appearance, while ptosis correction focuses on muscle function to ensure the eyelid opens properly. In some cases, a combination of both treatments may be necessary for optimal results.
The Procedure and Recovery
Both surgeries are performed under local anaesthetic, with sedation for added comfort. The incisions are carefully placed within the eyelid’s natural folds to minimise visible scarring. Patients typically experience mild swelling and bruising for one to two weeks, with most returning to normal activities within ten to fourteen days.
Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Any temporary discomfort or tightness subsides as healing progresses, and results become more apparent within a few months. With meticulous surgical precision, our specialists ensure a natural outcome that enhances your facial aesthetics without looking artificial or over-corrected.
