[Analysis of complication following blepharoptosis operation].
The complications following various operative procedures of blepharoptosis are analysed in 60 cases, including 85 eyes, treated in Hangzhou Plastic Surgery Hospital since 1984. The reasons underlying the complications are discussed. Some of the complications are avoidable, and measures which can be taken to prevent or correct them are illustrated. Some others are intrinsically related to the degree of severity of the ptosis and are bound to occur after the elected operative methods. They are therefore, inevitable, hence can not be corrected. The authors emphasizes that this fact should be explained to the patients before operations, in order to obtain their understanding and cooperation.
