Excess Skin After Eyelid Surgery. An upper eyelid lift reduces the excess upper eyelid skin and muscle by making a fine incision in the crease of the lid. The sagging tissue is gently removed, along with the little fat pad in the corner of the eyes near the nose. The skin is then stitched back together.
Medically necessary contact lenses usually offer the wearer greater visual acuity than eyeglasses can provide. Contact lenses may be used as an alternative to replacing the lens of the eye for some eye conditions and may be needed after some optical surgical procedures like cataract removal.
Contact lenses are an option for people who need a prescription for better vision but do not want to rely on eyeglasses every day. However, contact lenses require more than the prescription for correcting vision. The eye doctor must also measure the shape of the eye in order to prescribe the proper fit of lenses.
