Reconstructive and Cosmetic Eyelid Conditions We Treat

Botched or Unsatisfactory Eyelid Surgery

Complications from previous eyelid procedures can include asymmetry, excessive skin removal, hollowing, poor crease formation, or functional issues. Dr. Ginter carefully evaluates prior results and creates a revision plan to restore natural eyelid shape and comfort.

Excessive Scarring

Visible or restrictive eyelid scars may occur after trauma or surgery. CO₂ LASER resurfacing and surgical scar revision help improve texture, mobility, and blending with surrounding skin, supporting a smoother and more natural contour.

Lagophthalmos

Lagophthalmos occurs when the eyelids are unable to fully close, which can lead to dryness, irritation, or changes in vision. Dr. Ginter provides surgical correction tailored to the underlying cause, protecting the eye surface and restoring comfortable eyelid closure.

Eyelid Retraction

Eyelid retraction causes the eyelids to sit too high or too low, exposing too much of the eye. Treatment may involve repositioning tissue, adding support, or releasing scar bands to restore balanced eyelid position and protect the ocular surface.

Misdirected Eyelashes

Lashes that turn inward can rub against the eye, causing discomfort or damage. Treatment options include lash removal, LASER-assisted correction, or procedures to adjust the eyelid margin for long-term relief.

Watery Eyes and Epiphora

Excessive tearing may result from blocked tear ducts, eyelid malposition, or surface irritation. Dr. Ginter evaluates tear function and eyelid position to determine the best treatment, which may include tear duct surgery or structural correction.

Blepharitis and Chronic Eyelid Inflammation

Blepharitis causes redness, irritation, and crusting along the eyelid margins. Treatment may include gland expression, medication, LASER resurfacing, or eyelid hygiene protocols to improve comfort and long-term health.

Eyelid and Orbital Trauma

Trauma to the eyelids or surrounding structures may cause lacerations, fractures, scarring, or changes in eyelid position. As an oculofacial plastic surgeon, Dr. Ginter repairs trauma with oculoplastic techniques that protect vision, restore eyelid function, and recreate a natural appearance.

FAQs Conditions Treated

How do I know which condition I have?

A comprehensive consultation allows Dr. Ginter to evaluate eyelid anatomy, eyelid movement, and tear function to determine your exact diagnosis.

Can multiple eyelid issues be treated at the same time?

Yes. Many structural or functional concerns can be addressed through a single surgical plan, resulting in efficiency and balanced outcomes.

Are these conditions always treated surgically?

Not always. Some conditions respond well to medications, LASER resurfacing, or minimally invasive options. Treatment is personalized.

Can a previous eyelid surgery complication be fully corrected?

Many complications can be significantly improved with revision techniques; however, outcomes depend on the anatomy, the extent of scar tissue, and prior changes.
