Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Lift, Upper and Lower)

Blepharoplasty is the removal of excess upper and/or lower eyelid tissues. This surgery can improve peripheral vision, remove unwanted excess skin and fat, lessen perceived "heaviness" of the eyelids and restore your youthful appearance. Often, upper eyelid surgery is covered by insurance if there is significant limitation of function. Dr. Brannan will perform an in office evaluation to determine if you qualify for coverage.

Tear Duct Repair

Excessive tearing may be due to obstruction of the tear ducts (lacrimal passages). Surgery is performed to bypass the obstruction and create a new passage for the tears.

Lower Eyelid Surgery

A variety of conditions can result in lower eyelid malposition (entropion, ectropion, lid retraction), most of which are related to age. This can lead to eye irritation, redness, tearing and inadequate eye closure. Surgery is performed to reposition the eyelid and restore function.
