Can the Eyelid Lift also be performed as a day surgery?
Yes. Lifting of the eyelids is usually performed as day surgery, using local anesthesia The patient leaves the clinic on the same day. If, however, the surgery is performed using general anesthesia, it will require an overnight hospital stay. Surgeons usually prefer local anesthesia, so that during the surgery certain eye movements can be tracked. This can contribute to an optimal result.
