Conditions

  • Blepharoptosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Injection of Saline + Lidocaine/Adrenaline

All anaesthetic injections will consist of xylocaine 1% with 1:100,000 adrenaline and will be administered through a short 30 Gauge needle at a constant slow speed at multiple (6-7) sites along the upper lid by a single oculoplastic consultant. The experimental eyelid will receive a saline-consisted injection 0.5cc prior to the administration of the anesthetic injection. Injection of Saline + Lidocaine 1%
