Functional blepharoplasty and ptosis repair surgery to correct drooping eyelids that obstruct vision. Chinese ophthalmic surgeons perform medical eyelid procedures addressing ptosis, dermatochalasis, and entropion/ectropion that impair visual function. Unlike cosmetic blepharoplasty, these procedures are medically indicated for measurable visual field restriction.
