What are options to treat bilateral enophthalmos?

Creative7153Jun 6, 2022

I have always had big eyes and they were my defining feature. For the past 2 years, I have noticed them getting smaller and 3 months ago, they sunk deep enough to change my appearance. I look like a completely different person now. I believe the cause of my enophthalmos is congenital issues with my eyes/bone structure. What kind of doctor would I need to see for help? Thank you.

Hello @Mumma_Hunter, thank you for your question. You need to keep in mind that the right side of the face is not the same as the left side, so the results of surgical and non-surgical procedures will be different on both sides. I would suggest enhancing the volume above the eyebrow a bit to...

They are highly responsive to injection with corticosteroids. The dose you would need for the chalazia is relatively small. There is very little data on the risk of a kenalog injection. There not good evidence that steroids cause preterm labor or preeclampsia. Early in pregnancy there is weak...

Hi @lunascorpio. Based on your photos, you would be a great candidate for a lower lid blepharoplasty. Common reasons for lower blepharoplasty include pseudoherniation of the orbital fat pads and tear trough deformity. Best of luck!

Thank you for your question and pictures! To answer your question, botox in your glabellar area and a blepharoplasty would address your concerns. Horizontal eyelid wrinkles and sogginess can be corrected with blepharoplasty or cosmetic eyelid surgery. It is one of the first cosmetic surgeries...

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
