I had a consultation with reconstructive oculoplastic surgeon. He exterminated my lower eyelids very carefully. He proposed me the next option. According to clinical presentation of my case-he said that i need to reinforce back lamella by Hard Palate Graft 2 steps(from conjuctiva site). But first of all he said to operate right lower eyelid. After couple month of rehabilitation-left lower eyelid. Dear doctor-why? Do you have any suggestions? May he wanted to achieve the best symmetry of both my eyelids?
