I am hoping someone else out there found a skilled oculoplastic surgeon who corrected the same problem I have. The cosmetic surgeon I went to did an upper lid blepharoplasty and destroyed my eye shape, which was a large almond shape by removing TOO MUCH SKIN AND MUSCLE from my upper lids. One eye is so bad I cant close it. My eyes are uneven, with saggy corners and smaller eyelids,
Has anyone had success with an oculoplastic surgeon for correction of the same problem?
I would appreciate your experience and recommendation

I need information regarding Dr. Robert Weiss of the Chicago Eye Institute and Dr. Mark Codner in Atlanta.
I have limited information about them.
I need a complicated revision & am trying to find legitimate information about these two surgeons.
Thank you.

Dr Robert Weiss was arrested and not practicing at the Chicago Eye Institute. I scheduled an appt with him and they called me to cancel. Its hard to trust anyone at this point. Who can I go to in Chicago??

Yes, I discovered this info shortly after my consultation with him (where I had waited nearly 2 hours to see him!)
Btw, he had bragged about doing "8000+ cases" as a "top doctor" in Chicago and said the risk of repairing my simple upper eyelid procedure outweighed the benefits. I emailed another dr in Los Angeles and he was able to fix my issue without any surgery or anesthesia.
I can point you to some excellent, competent and honest surgeons in LA, if you're open to travel to fix the issue. Seems a lot of the "top doctors" in Chicago are full of hot air.

I am looking for a really good Dr who can repair my lower lids after a Dr ruined them. I am willing to travel anywhere if you could share your LA Dr's info I would be so thankful.

You're welcome! You can send pix to their email initially. That will make your selection easier based on what they tell you via email.

I consulted with dr putterman but decided to not go with him because he wanted to elevate my crease. Hes supposed to be a "top doc" but wasnt sure after meeting with him. I dont want to travel and wish there was a good doc here. Is there anyone here you do not recommend so I know to avoid the doctor? Thanks
