Abstract
Transconjunctival blepharoplasty is a commonly performed procedure. Corneal protection, avoidance of damage to the inferior oblique muscle of the eye, avoidance of hemorrhage from the fat pads, and adequate fat removal are important considerations when transconjunctival blepharoplasty is performed. The described surgical technique provides consistently satisfactory results and avoids the use of cumbersome corneal protectors.
