What are the dangers of having a full-cut double eyelid?

Double eyelids are a very popular eye shape in life. Although many people have single eyelids, they can change this problem by having double eyelid surgery so that they can also have a pair of beautiful double eyelids. There are many methods of double eyelid surgery, among which full-cut double eyelids are a more popular one. However, many people worry that this method will have side effects on the body. So, what are the dangers of having a full-cut double eyelid?

There is no harm in full-cut double eyelid surgery, but there may be some common sequelae that you need to pay attention to.

What are the sequelae of double eyelid surgery? The following situations may occur:

1. Epiphora is caused by the failure of the cornea to adapt to the new environment after the eyelids are opened wide, and no treatment is required.

2. If redness, swelling, heat and pain appear on the upper eyelid, infection should be considered and effective antibiotics should be used.

3. Mild hematoma may disappear on its own, but severe hematoma or progressive hematoma requires an incision to stop bleeding or drain.

4. Although the incision and tissue wound have been sutured, there is still a small amount of continuous bleeding. You can use cold compresses (ice cubes, cool towels), pressure bandages with elastic bandages, etc. At the same time, be careful not to lower your head too much, and do not open or close your eyes forcefully.

5. If the scars are significantly caused by infection or physical condition, local medication, such as steroid hormone injection, can be used.

6. After the eyelid tissue is traumatized by surgery, reactive edema will occur between cells. Eyelid edema is normal and there is no need to worry. Pressure bandages and cold compresses can help alleviate the above phenomenon, but if the swelling is severe and continues to progress, you should have a check-up in time.

7. If the double eyelid surgery is performed roughly, the cornea is injured, and an infection occurs, it is easy to form a corneal ulcer, which will cause vision loss in the future. If the bleeding is not stopped completely when the orbital septum fat is removed, it may cause orbital bleeding. If it is not discovered in time and treated urgently, it will form a hematoma due to the bleeding, compressing the optic nerve in the eyeball and causing blindness.
