Patient-reported outcome measurement in upper blepharoplasty; how to measure what the patient sees

Blepharochalasis is very common and affects not only appearance but also visual function. Upper blepharoplasty is therefore the most frequently performed facial cosmetic procedure worldwide. It is generally seen as a small procedure with good patient acceptance and postoperative satisfaction. Research concerning the outcome of this procedure in terms of satisfaction and quality of life is lacking, as well as a recommendation on which assessment tools to use in this patient group.
