Staying safe with cosmetic eyelid surgery. WOR show 2/24/26

Do you need Straight Talk about Cosmetic Surgery? Email me...Blepharoplasties are cosmetic eyelid lifts.  This procedure usually removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids and is a great facial rejuvenator.  Many people think the surgery is a minor procedure because the satisfaction rate is very high and the complication rate is fairly low.  But the truth is that all sorts of issues can occur with eyelid surgery - from visible scars to a pull-down of the lids to the dreaded complication of blindness.  Before surgery, I send my patients to an ophthalmologist to determine that their eyes are healthy enough to have surgery.  On this show, I bring in expert ophthalmologist Dr. Larry Najarian, who discusses how he helps patients get ready for their eyelid surgery.
