The procedure is almost entirely painless. For procedures under local anaesthesia, you don&#8217;t need to have an empty stomach and a light meal beforehand is permitted.<\/p><p>In the event of an <strong>upper eyelid correction<\/strong>, the excessive skin above your eyes is removed via a very tiny incision in the folds of the skin. After stitching, a cold eye mask is applied and you have to wait about half an hour at the eye centre.<\/p><p>Once the procedure is finished, you can leave our clinic. Your vision may be a bit blurry in the first hours after the procedure, and so we suggest that someone comes with you. Once the local anaesthetic has worn off, you may have a slightly unpleasant sensation, but this will soon disappear. You will need to apply antibiotic ointment to the wound. You should rest after the procedure and on the day after the procedure.
