All the Basics of Eye Surgery!

Eye Surgery Care Tips, Let’s Take a Close Look! 

Have you heard the phrase, ‘Knowledge is power!’ so often that you’re tired of it? Still, nothing enriches life quite like the joy of learning. Today, let’s expand our knowledge a little with useful information about eye surgery!

Applying a cold compress to swollen areas after eye surgery can help reduce swelling. However, placing a cooling pack directly on the eyes may irritate the skin, so it’s best to place clean gauze first and then put the cooling pack on top.

Next, applying antibiotic ointment is also important. Inflammation often develops around the operated eye. Of course, symptoms after surgery differ from person to person, but just in case, remember that you should definitely apply antibiotic ointment to help prevent inflammation.

There are also behaviors to be careful about in daily life. You should avoid visiting places with high indoor temperatures, such as Korean sauna baths. Also, strenuous exercise that raises your body temperature should be avoided immediately after surgery.

If you had double eyelid surgery, the surgical area may become itchy over time. But no matter how itchy it gets, do not pull, rub, or otherwise irritate your eyes! If it itches, use a cold compress instead, or visit the hospital if the symptoms worsen.

Can you put on makeup right after surgery? In the case of double eyelid surgery, it is best to apply makeup after the stitches are removed. At that time, it is safer to keep the makeup lighter than usual. For 2 to 3 weeks after surgery, it is best to avoid makeup if possible, which is good not only for the surgical results but also for eye health.

Who is a candidate for eye surgery? Be sure to remember this!

Many people notice drooping eyelids as they get older, right? If you do not manage it, you may develop the habit of constantly raising your eyebrows, which can deepen forehead wrinkles. Therefore, before wrinkles appear, we recommend visiting for a consultation with a specialist and undergoing the eye surgery that is most suitable for you.

Then, is surgery necessary even when a drooping eyelid is covering the pupil? This condition is ptosis, caused by weak muscles that open the eyes, and it can be corrected by tightening the eye muscles.

Also, as aging progresses, the fat layer becomes thinner and the eyelids often sag downward. In such cases, under-eye fat may also become more prominent, causing outward appearance-related stress. Unlike aegyo-sal, which are considered a cute feature under the eyes, this can make a person look older, so under-eye fat removal may be a good option.

And people with ptosis often develop the habit of using their eyebrow muscles. Because of this, the area above the eyebrows may appear protruded, while the upper forehead may sink in, creating forehead grooves. In such cases, this can be addressed through ptosis correction surgery, and it is advisable to have the surgery as soon as possible before the forehead becomes more sunken.

Lastly, if your eyes appear spaced far apart, consider double eyelid surgery with an in-out line. It can create the impression that the space between the eyebrows looks narrower.
