Male Eye Correction: Double Eyelids Are Out, Monolids Are In

Eye correction, interpreted literally, means changing the appearance of the eyes. In a broader sense, anything that changes the look of the eyes can be called eye correction. If a monolid becomes a double eyelid through simple double-eyelid surgery, or if the appearance of the eyes changes through an inner or outer corner eye surgery, all of these can be called eye correction.

However, in actual eye correction, regardless of whether there is a double eyelid, you need to check how much more of the black iris is exposed. If you have had eye correction surgery, more of the black iris should be visible. Simply creating a double eyelid is not eye correction in the precise sense.

Monolid eye correction refers to increasing the amount of visible black iris while keeping the monolid, or, if the eyes already had double eyelids, removing the double eyelid while greatly increasing the amount of visible black iris. That is what can truly be called monolid eye correction.

In the photo after monolid eye correction surgery, do you see the small white dot in the center of the black iris? It is the reflection of the flash when taking the photo at the center of the pupil. The distance between this point and the upper eyelid eyelashes is called MRD, a concept that doctors actually apply in ptosis surgery. The larger the MRD distance, the more eye correction has been performed.

Male eye correction is all about monolids! In the past, male actors with double eyelids were mainstream, but recently, actors with monolids or subtle double eyelids have been much more noticeable. These days, it is not the era of double-eyelid surgery, but the era of monolid eye correction, which strengthens the muscles that open the eyes and creates a clear, smart-looking appearance.

Do you have a man's eyes that need eye correction, but also have double eyelids? Whether they are pre-existing surgical double eyelids or natural double eyelids, it is also possible to remove the double eyelids and perform eye correction, so take another look and check for yourself!
