AMARILLA, Jesus; ALDANA, Celso Augusto  and  SANDOVAL, José Hernando. Blepharoplasty and rejuvenation of the eyes. An. Fac. Cienc. Méd. (Asunción) [online]. 2021, vol.54, n.1, pp.133-136. ISSN 1816-8949.  https://doi.org/10.18004/anales/2021.054.01.133.

The eyes are the main focus of the face and the expression of the individual's personality is attributed to them. The anatomical configuration of the eyelids and the periorbital region constitutes one of the most important areas of human expression. There are apparently aesthetic alterations that lead to visual disorders, such as dermatochalasis and blepharochalasis, which can limit the visual field or cause eye fatigue due to the redundant pressure of the skin on the eyelashes, the laxity of the canthal tendons causes a scleral exposure syndrome and at the same time tearing. Blepharoplasty produces favorable clinical and aesthetic results in patients suffering from dermatochalasis.

Keywords : blepharoplasty; dermatochalasis; blepharochalasis..
