8 years later I’m having upper belpharoplasty done again with a different board certified plastic surgeon and they are prescribing it. It costs $300, so surely you’d understand why I’d be questioning the necessity when I did fine without it the first time. Can someone please chime in on this?

Answer: Tobradex use after blepharoplasty A combination of antibiotic and corticosteroid to protect from an infection and discomfort after surgery is frequently prescribed in blepharoplasty surgery. However, this varies from surgeon to surgeon. Hope this helps.

Answer: Tobradex for upper blepharoplasty I normally only prescribe Tobradex eye drops after lower blepharoplasty but not upper blepharoplasty. I would recommend following the instructions of your particular surgeon though. I have had some patients find a discounted cost of Tobradex through GoodRx. You could try that to see if it would lower your cost.
