Abstract
Clinically significant chemosis occasionally complicates lower eyelid blepharoplasty. In this report, the etiologic components of postblepharoplasty chemosis are discussed. The time course and duration of chemosis vary according to the underlying cause. Early, late, and prolonged chemosis are managed with different strategies. Diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms for chemosis assessment and management are presented.
