Can you do double eyelid surgery with dry eyes?

Double eyelid surgery is not always possible if there is dry eye disease.

If there is a more serious dry eye disease, it is generally not recommended to do double eyelid surgery. Because double eyelid surgery may destroy the meibomian gland canal, resulting in meibomian gland dysfunction, so that dry eye symptoms worsen. However, if dry eye disease is mild, the condition is relatively stable, and there are no other abnormalities in the eyes, double eyelid surgery can usually be done.

If you want to do double eyelid surgery, systematic examination should be carried out before surgery, and regular hospital surgery should be selected. Pay attention to wound care after surgery, so as not to affect recovery.
