Epicanthoplasty is a rare eye surgery to modify the epicanthal folds. It can be a challenging procedure because the epicanthal folds overlay the lacrimal canaliculi (tear drainage canals).Although an epicanthic fold can also be associated with a less prominent upper eyelid crease (a feature commonly termed "single eyelids" as opposed to "double eyelids"), the two features are distinct; a person may have both epicanthal folds and an upper eyelid crease, one and not the other, or neither. Single eyelids are reshaped using East Asian blepharoplasty.

  • Epicanthoplasty is a rare eye surgery to modify the epicanthal folds. It can be a challenging procedure because the epicanthal folds overlay the lacrimal canaliculi (tear drainage canals).Although an epicanthic fold can also be associated with a less prominent upper eyelid crease (a feature commonly termed "single eyelids" as opposed to "double eyelids"), the two features are distinct; a person may have both epicanthal folds and an upper eyelid crease, one and not the other, or neither. Single eyelids are reshaped using East Asian blepharoplasty. Epicanthoplasty may leave visible post-surgical scar lines. A common corrective technique involves using Z-plasty. (en)
  • La epicantoplastia o blefaroplastia asiática es una cirugía plástica facial para modificar los pliegues del epicanto​ y reduce quirúrgicamente la brida mongólica, presente en poblaciones que comparten ciertos rasgos fenotípicos Mongoloides. Es un procedimiento delicado porque los pliegues del epicanto se superponen a los canalículos lagrimales (canales lagrimales) del aparato lagrimal, que contiene las estructuras orbitales para la producción y el drenaje de las lágrimas.​​ La epicantoplastia puede dejar visibles las cicatrices pos-quirúrgicas. Una técnica correctiva común implica el uso de una Z-plastia.​​ No debe confundirse con la ptosis palpebral o blefaroptosis, que se refiere a la caída excesiva de los párpados superiores. Esta afección se presenta generalmente con el envejecimiento, aunque en otras ocasiones puede ser el resultado de un defecto congénito o de una lesión o enfermedad. Esta tipo de afección se reforma mediante cirugía de párpados dobles o Blefaroplastia. (es)
