Lasik and Lateral Canthoplasty Medial Epicantho at the Same Time

September 25, 2010
Asked By:radicalcad in Los Angeles, CA

i know u cant do blepharoplasty and lasik in one sitting because of the eyelid intersection, but what about epicantho and lateral cantho AND lasik, not necessarily in one sitting, but in a short time frame, for exapmle, on the same "vacation" perhaps a week apart. epicantho and lat cantho, then one week later do lasik with another doctor. can this be done safely without any dangerous side effects? i do not mind dry eyes as long as it resolves itself over time. thanks
