Can eyelid surgery improve your vision?

The short answer is, yes, although the degree to which it will help depends on the individual case. Whenever your eyelids are hanging down over your eyes, they impair your vision, even though you may not notice it. Our visual field is a composite constructed by the mind, and we are never aware of its many gaps, not the center of the visual field which is fabricated, and certainly not the areas of our peripheral vision that are constricted by drooping eyelids. If you have drooping eyelids, you will experience an improvement in your visual field following an eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). It is possible that the change will be immediately noticeable, especially in situations that require you to respond quickly to unexpected circumstances at the edge of your visual field, such as driving and sports.
