Eyelid Retraction Surgery in Beverly Hills & Greater Los Angeles
If you’re experiencing chronic eye irritation, blurred vision, or a wide-eyed appearance due to eyelid retraction, you’re not alone. This condition can result from thyroid eye disease, previous lower blepharoplasty, trauma, or even inherited facial anatomy. At our Beverly Hills clinic, Dr. Kami Parsa offers advanced, patient-specific surgical solutions to restore eyelid function and appearance—helping patients across Los Angeles live more comfortably and confidently.
Understanding Eyelid Retraction: More Than Cosmetic
Eyelid retraction occurs when the upper eyelid is pulled too high or the lower eyelid is pulled downward, leaving the eye overly exposed. This isn’t just an aesthetic issue. It can lead to:
- Chronic dry eye or tearing
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Foreign body sensation or light sensitivity
- Eye fatigue and discomfort
In the Los Angeles area, Dr. Parsa frequently treats eyelid retraction caused by thyroid eye disease (Graves’ orbitopathy), failed lower eyelid surgery, or anatomical changes from aging or trauma. Because the condition often worsens over time, early diagnosis and surgical planning are critical.
How We Help: Personalized Care from Consultation to Recovery
At our Beverly Hills clinic, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every eyelid retraction case is unique—and so is every treatment plan. Here’s how we guide you through the process:

- Canthoplasty/Canthopexy to support and tighten the lower eyelid
- Spacer grafts to restore lid position and coverage
- Orbital decompression in TED cases to relieve eye protrusion
- Midface lifting to reposition soft tissue that pulls down on the eyelid
