Can I Improve Vertical Orbital Dystopia With An Implant?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I have vertical orbital dystopia. Am interested in improving symmetry via implant – please give me an email/ call to discuss procedure possibilities and a quote.

A:Vertical orbital dystopia is usually a lot more complex to treat than an implant alone. The implant has a role to play and is a foundational procedure but it also requires adjustments of the upper and lower eyelid around it to look right. In addition there is aa 50% chance of the need for adjustment of the eyelid positions later.

So  VOD surgery is not quite as simple as it seems.
