Eyelid Surgery to Correct Protruding Lacrimal Gland?

Dear Gaps
It would be very unusual for someone who is 21 to have lacrimal gland prolapse. Also you have abnormal upper eyelid creases in the area of eyelid fullness. I think before you have yourself ready to go for cosmetic eyelid surgery, someone needs to figure out why you lacrimal glands are enlarged. There are a few causes and you need to have the eyelid surgery work you up for conditions like Sarcoid and a few others.
It might be appropriate to obtain a CT scan to determine how large the glands are and other features of the gland. A biopsy of one of the glands may also be appropriate before settling on an eyelid treatment. Once the cause has been determined and any appropriate treatment has been undertaken then it might be reasonable to surgically address any remaining issues. However, an appropriate work up is what should be done first.

Hi Gapsfinest4eva - It appears as though you have a combination of excess skin and protruding lacrimal glands of your upper eyelids. The lacrimal gland is stitched up to the bone around the eyes to hold it up and in place. The excess skin is then trimmed off. The recovery is pretty easy with minimal discomfort. Good luck!
