Concept of Double-eyelid Segments Ratio: Practical Application in Asian Blepharoplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There have been few articles on the vertical dimension of the Asian upper eyelid, the eyelid crease segment, and the upper palpebral segment. The eyelid crease height manifests differently depending on whether it is closed (on extreme downgaze), open, or on upward gaze. This study will investigate a ratio practical for use in Asian blepharoplasty (external incisional method).

Methods

The central vertical dimensions of Asian upper eyelids were measured, together with the upper palpebral segment and eyelid crease height when present. These parameters were recorded preoperatively and following double-eyelid surgery, and remeasured at 1 week and 2 months postoperative with eyelids closed and with eyes open looking straight ahead. The ratios of anatomic upper/lower seg
