What to do about lower eyelid ectropion after eye bag surgery

If lower eyelid ectropion occurs after eyelid surgery, it may be due to postoperative swelling when it happens early. Cold and warm compresses combined with massage can be applied locally. Under a doctor's guidance, topical corticosteroid ointments may also be used to help reduce swelling; commonly used medications include tobramycin ointment and dexamethasone ointment. If the condition occurs six months after surgery, surgical correction is typically required, usually involving re-opening the incision made during blepharoplasty and suspending and fixing the skin tissue.
