BLEPHAROPLASTY

Droopy eyelids are a major reason why some people consider eyelid surgery (known as blepharoplasty) to remove and tighten excess eyelid skin, which can improve the appearance of the eyelids. Sometimes blepharoplasty also can improve your vision by providing a less obstructed field of view, once droopy eyelids are improved.

If causative allergen is identified and removed, the condition is cured otherwise treatment is supportive.

BOTOX

Botox Cosmetic is used for the temporary smoothing of glabellar lines (also called frown lines), which are the lines between your eyebrows that can make you look tired, unhappy or angry. However, it is often used off-label for horizontal forehead lines, crow's feet, marionette lines at the corners of the mouth and smoker's lines around the lips. , Botox is used to treat spasms related to benign essential blepharospasm,hemifacial spasm, cerebral palsy, fibromyalgia Botox is actually used to treat eye muscle problems (strabismus) and uncontrolled eyelid twitching (blepharospasm), and it was developed and FDA-approved for these uses with eye safety in mind.

PUFFY EYES AND DARK CIRCLES

  • Puffy eyes and dark circles under the eyes occur for many reasons, including inherited facial features, allergies, stress, eye fatigue and individual skin characteristics such as texture.
  • Ordinary swelling around the eyes means you have an excessive accumulation of fluids, called edema, in surrounding skin tissue.

    • But why does fluid accumulate to form puffy eyes in the first place?

    Edema around the eyes generally results from a variety of factors, including:
  • Overconsumption of salt, which causes fluid retention
  • Allergies that can cause inflammation and swelling
  • Sinus problems
  • Dehydration
  • Fatigue and lack of sleep
  • Stress
  • Crying
  • Aging
  • Inherited facial features
    • While the last answer isn't very satisfying, it's true that many people have puffy eyes because this trait simply runs in the family.

    When Do Puffy Eyes Mean You Have a Medical Condition?

    • Particularly when they occur unexpectedly, swollen eyes sometimes signal an underlying medical problem.
    • For example, people with thyroid eye disease can develop swelling of tissue and muscles around their eyes. Also, bulging eyes can signal a thyroid disorder known as Graves' disease.
    • Can also happen in case of eye allergies and eye infections

    What Can Be Done About Puffy Eyes and Dark Circles?

    To find the best solution for puffy eyes and dark circles, it's important to identify the underlying cause.

    If you have the same puffy eyes as your mother or father, you probably inherited the trait — so you can blame your parent! In this case, you will need to learn to live with the look or consider cosmetic options that might help reduce the puffiness.

    Puffy eyes caused by aging also probably would require a cosmetic solution.

    You might want to discuss with your eye doctor or cosmetic surgeon some of the available options to address your eyelid concerns.

    These options include chemical peels, laser skin resurfacing procedures, certain cosmeceuticals (prescription skin products) and eyelid surgery known as blepharoplasty. Blepharoplasty involves removing extra fatty tissue and excessive skin from upper and lower eyelids, as well as tightening skin and muscles to reduce puffiness and wrinkles. Many temporary remedies can help reduce the swollen look around eyes, such as:

    • Using eye drops for irritation caused by allergies, if appropriate
    • Drinking ample fluid to prevent dehydration
    • Applying iced compresses when your lids are swollen
    • Applying cucumber slices or chilled tea bags over closed eyes
    • Using creams and other skin products specially formulated for use around the eyes
    • Reducing salt in your diet
    • Eating potassium-rich foods, such as bananas, to eliminate excess fluids in your body
    • Splashing cold water over your face and eyes
    • Getting plenty of sleep and rest

    Eye Care

    Eye care pertains to the daily care of the valuable pair of eyes. Eye care habits should be inculcated from a tender age. The right age to make a child aware of the importance of the eyes is six or seven. That is the phase of life when a child identifies the different parts of his or her body.

    Eyegiene

    The simple eye care methods include flushing the eyes with fresh clean water after waking up. An important aspect of flushing the eye care with water is that the person concerned should have a mouthful of water prior to the action. Otherwise, forceful flushing of water can even lead to adverse circumstances including bleeding from the eyes.
