The impact of inner corner eye surgery on vision
Disease description:
I feel my eyes are relatively small, so recently I've been considering undergoing inner canthoplasty. I've heard from others that this procedure might affect vision. So, what impact does canthoplasty have on eyesight?

Opening the inner corner of the eye generally does not affect vision. This is because inner canthoplasty is a type of eye corner cosmetic surgery that usually does not involve the patient's cornea, thus it does not impair visual acuity. After undergoing inner canthoplasty, patients may experience conjunctival edema or blurred vision due to sutures or surgical irritation. However, once fully recovered, vision typically returns to its preoperative condition.
