Upper eyelid Surgery and under active thyroid - Will this be a contraindication for surgery?

January 27, 2022
Asked By:jeny.wren in Avon Park, Florida

I’m considering upper eye lid surgery. I have an under active thyroid which doesn’t give me any problems and have been on levothyroxine for 5 years. Will this be a contraindication for surgery? Some of the clinics I’ve researched have suggested I bring along photos when I was younger which I can understand but why would I need to take a copy of my eye sight test? Thank you
