LASIK + Eyelid Surgeries?

[wishingstar]

Has anyone here had / considered both LASIK (for vision correction of near sightedness) and double eyelid surgeries / canthoplasty etc?

If so, which surgery did you have first?

Also, do you know how long you have to wait between getting LASIK surgery and the eyelid surgeries?

I've already had lasik done here in America (3 months ago) and was told by a number of clinics that I could have DES done a month after the initial lasik procedure. Plastic surgeons here in America recommend at least six months so your eyes have proper time to heal and also helps combat dryness which is a potential side effect from both DES and lasik. That being said, I'm planning to have surgery done in June 2020 just to be on the safe side. You do only have one pair of eyes after all!

Thank you so much for the info! Appreciated. How did your LASIK turn out? Are you satisfied?

Also, which surgeons are you considering currently for DES?

I had my Lasik done in America and paid around 3.5k. Highly recommended because it is LIFE CHANGING lol! It was a pretty painless process and I was able to see almost 20/20 the next day! I did have to deal with some side effects such as dryness and bruising for a few weeks but it varies from person to person.

I've consulted with hyundai, UVOM, Namu, and Nana so far.

Congrats on a great LASIK result! Which surgeons did you consult with at each? and which one are you leaning towards so far?

I'm curious to hear more about Nana especially, since I don't see a lot about them here but they seem to be on the Chinese plastic surgery forum sites a lot
