Effect of Transcutaneous Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty on Blink Parameters and Lipid Layer Thickness

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of transcutaneous upper eyelid blepharoplasty on lipid layer thickness (LLT) and blink parameters in young women during the early postoperative period.Methods: This prospective study included 110 eyes of 55 young female patients (age range, 19–31 y...
