Asian eyelid surgery is the same as double eyelid procedure
Basically these two terms are the same. Many asian individuals have no visible fold in their upper lid because of a lack of attachment from the skin to the muscle and this is what is created in the double eyelid procedure. It is important to go to a surgeon experienced in this because some will make the mistake of creating the fold at the same level as a caucasian lid which is higher up thus taking away the appropriate ethnicity of the patient. This cannot be fixed later.

Asian eyelid surgery is generally same thing as double eyelid surgery
Generally Asian eyelid surgery is synonymous with double eyelid surgery. Asians usually do not have the supratarsal fold which creates the appearance of having a double eyelid. Caucasians usually have the supratarsal crease naturally. This fold is created surgically with the Asian eyelid surgery.

Asian Blepharoplasty versus double eyelid surgery
I would personally make a distinction between Asian Blepharoplasty and double eyelid surgery.

Asian Blepharoplasty and Double Eyelid Surgery is essentially the same thing
Asian Blepharoplasty and Double Eyelid Surgery is essentially the same thing. Double eyelid surgery specifically means creating the crease in the upper eyelid. Now this doesn't have to be used only on Asians. Caucasians can have this as well and can lose their double eyelid later on in life due to aging. So this procedure of creating a double eyelid can be used for this group as well.
Most of the time when Asians want an eyelift they usually come in to discuss creating the double...

Asian Blepharoplasty aka double eyelid procedure
The Asian Blepharoplasty is performed for those patients, mostly Asian, who desire an elevation and enhancement of the upper eyelid fold. The anatomical difference between the Asian eyelid and the Western eyelid is based on lack of attachment of the skin to the underlying levator muscle( the muscle that opens the eye), a lower attachment of the septum ( the structure that separates the back half of the eyelid from the front) and an extra layer of fat in the tissue just in front of the...
