Abstract
Currently, postoperative evaluation of aesthetic results of blepharoplasties mainly consists of subjective assessment by patients, surgeons, or others. We present an objective photo-assisted evaluation for preoperative planning and postoperative evaluation of blepharoplasties. Thirty-one female patients underwent aesthetic blepharoplasty. All types of blepharoplasties were included. An analysis of standardized pre- and postoperative photographs included measurements of eye fissure height, eye fissure width, lid sulcus height, upper lid height, upper iris coverage, scleral show, position of cornea to palpebra inferior, canthal tilt, an analysis of the architecture, and correction of wrinkles of the upper eyelid. Patients' satisfaction was investigated by a standardized questionnaire. All measured data showed postoperative changes to standard values. Upper eyelid wrinkles showed a significant decrease postoperatively. Most patients were highly satisfied with their results. The methods described in the present study help to evaluate the pre- and postoperative situation in blepharoplasty surgery.
