Eye Plastic Surgery > Protruding Eyes in Double Eyelid Surgery

Explanation of the symptoms of protruding eyes

Protruding eyes refer to a condition in which the eyeballs are excessively protruded, either congenitally or due to diseases such as hyperthyroidism.

As a result, the eyes may look intensely wide-open, three-white eye may appear, or a look similar to ptosis may be present. Protruding eyes can cause visual discomfort and may also place a burden on appearance.

What is three-white eye?

Three-white eye is a term mainly used in plastic surgery and refers to a condition in which too much of the white part of the eye (the sclera) is visible. As a result, rather than giving the impression of large, bright eyes, it can instead create a tired and lethargic impression. Three-white eye is mainly caused by ptosis (drooping eyelids) or structural problems with the eyes.

Causes of three-white eye

The main causes of three-white eye are as follows:

Ptosis: When the eyelids droop and a lot of the white part of the eye is exposed.

Structural problems of the eyes: This can occur when the shape or position of the eyes is abnormal.

Aging: As people get older, the skin may sag and the eyelids may become heavy, causing three-white eye to appear.

Explanation of the need for surgery to address the issue

Protruding eyes are not simply a cosmetic issue; they can also cause eye fatigue and discomfort. If this problem is left unaddressed, the balance of the entire face may look awkward, and it may also be accompanied by functional problems. Correcting protruding eyes can create a more natural and balanced impression.

Solution methods

Explanation of the non-incisional method

This is a method of creating double eyelids without making a skin incision, and it has the advantage of reducing strain for people with protruding eyes and allowing for faster recovery. This method is especially effective when there is little fat or when the eyelids are thin.

Explanation of minimal-incision double eyelid surgery without skin excision

The incision method with minimized skin excision can correct excessive protrusion of the eyelids while also creating natural-looking double eyelids. This method has a short recovery period, leaves minimal scarring, and delivers excellent post-surgery results.

Explanation of eye correction surgery

Eye correction surgery is an important procedure for correcting protruding eyes; by improving structural problems of the eyelids, it creates a wider and more natural eye shape. It is effective in lifting the eyelids and reducing excessive protrusion of the eyes.

Explanation of post-surgery care

After surgery, swelling and bruising may occur, so they should be managed with cold compresses and medication. Do not touch the surgical area frequently, and it is important to avoid strenuous exercise or physical activity for a certain period. Using sunscreen to protect the skin is also essential.

A word from Director Ahn Byung-jun

The most important key to solving the problem after identifying the cause through double eyelid surgery

Protruding eyes can occur due to congenital causes or acquired causes such as hyperthyroidism, and through double eyelid surgery and eye correction surgery, it is possible to reduce the prominence of the eyes and create a natural eye shape, resulting in a more harmonious face.

Why specialist medical staff should perform the surgery

Corrective surgery for protruding eyes requires a high level of skill and a meticulous approach. Specialist medical staff carefully analyze the patient's eye condition and anatomical structure to establish a customized surgical plan, minimize complications, and achieve the best possible results.

A guide to eye plastic surgery - Director Ahn Byung-jun

I have focused solely on eye plastic surgery for 25 years. Now that I feel I know a little about plastic surgery, I say that there is no doctor who can do everything well, including eyes, nose, and breast surgery.

To truly understand one field for a lifetime, countless experiences must accumulate over time.
