What Is Eyelid Surgery?

Eyelid surgery encompasses a variety of procedures aimed at both restoring function and refining the aesthetic of the upper and lower eyelids. Sometimes referred to as oculoplastic surgery or eyelid reconstruction, it goes beyond traditional blepharoplasty by addressing deeper structural or functional concerns. This can include repairing drooping upper lids (ptosis), refining eyelid shape after injury, or reconstructing the area post-tumor removal. For individuals with vision impediments caused by lid droop or malposition, eyelid surgery can also alleviate related discomfort or dryness.

At pēkomd®, we recognize that each patient's anatomy and concerns are distinct. By examining your eyelid structure, underlying muscles, and any accompanying issues like compromised tear ducts, our board-certified surgeons create a plan that focuses on both function and form. We're committed to ensuring that every improvement we make—from reshaping cartilage to removing growths—seamlessly aligns with your facial proportions and daily comfort.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

Restoration of natural eyelid contours
Balanced, symmetrical eye area

Correction of eyelid malposition

Improved confidence and comfort

What to Expect During Your Eyelid Surgery at pēkomd

Your journey toward refreshed, functional eyelids starts with an in-depth consultation at our Toledo office. We'll assess your eyelid concerns, review your medical background, and discuss the improvements you'd like to see. Depending on whether you primarily have cosmetic goals—like smoothing puffiness—or require more complex reconstructive work for droopy or malformed lids, we'll recommend a customized approach. If you have coexisting issues like brow droop or significant under-eye hollows, combining eyelid surgery with other procedures may better serve your goals. On the day of your procedure, you'll arrive at our accredited surgical suite.

Anesthesia options may range from local anesthesia with sedation to general anesthesia, contingent upon the complexity of your surgery and personal comfort needs. Once numbed or sedated, your surgeon will create discreet incisions, often concealed along the natural eyelid folds or lash lines. Through these incisions, they'll reposition fat, tighten muscles, or remove excess skin, all with the goal of preserving proper eyelid function and creating a harmonious look. After surgery, you'll rest in a monitored recovery area for a brief period before returning home, equipped with thorough aftercare instructions to guide you through a safe, comfortable recovery.

Recovering After Your Eyelid Surgery

Recovery from eyelid surgery varies by the scope and complexity of the procedure. Generally, mild swelling, bruising, or dryness around the eyes can be expected in the initial days. Applying cold compresses and keeping your head elevated help minimize these side effects, while prescribed ointments or drops can further protect against irritation. Many patients find they can resume light activities, such as desk work or short errands, within about a week—though you might prefer tinted glasses or sunglasses in public as you heal. During the initial recovery window, it's wise to limit screen time, reading, or any action that strains the eyes. In addition, avoiding rubbing or pressing on your eyelids reduces the risk of complications. Follow-up appointments at pēkomd® allow us to monitor your progress, remove any necessary stitches, and address any emerging questions about your healing process. With careful adherence to post-operative guidance, you can look forward to rejuvenated eyelids that not only enrich your appearance but also enhance daily comfort and clarity.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure.

Eyelid Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

Curious about how blepharoplasty in Toledo can restore both function and a refreshed eye contour? Contact pēkomd® now to book a personalized consultation and start on the path to clearer vision and elevated confidence.

How does eyelid surgery differ from standard blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty often focuses on cosmetic enhancements, like removing excess skin or fat. Eyelid surgery (oculoplastic surgery) can tackle both functional and aesthetic challenges, including lid malposition and muscle weakness.

Will scars be visible after surgery?

Incisions are placed within the eyelid's natural folds or lash lines, keeping visible scars to a minimum. Over time, they usually fade significantly, particularly with proper aftercare.

Is there a risk to my vision?

When performed by a board-certified specialist, complications affecting vision are rare. We maintain meticulous surgical protocols to protect your eye structures throughout the procedure.

What about combining eyelid surgery with other treatments?

Yes, some individuals benefit from adding a brow lift or under-eye therapies for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. We can discuss these possibilities during your assessment.

How soon can I resume normal activities like reading or work?

Light tasks or desk jobs often resume within a week. However, we suggest resting your eyes and limiting screen time initially to support a smoother recovery.
