    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Cosmetic Surgery
    • Histopathology

    Background:

    • Blepharopigmentation is a growing cosmetic periocular surgery technique.
    • It involves linear deposition of colored particles near the lash line.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate potential hazards of blepharopigmentation to the globe.
    • To examine lesions resulting from the procedure using histopathology.

    Main Methods:

    • The technique was applied to human cadaver globes.
    • New Zealand white rabbits were also used to assess potential risks.
    • Lesions were documented and analyzed through histopathological examination.

    Main Results:

    • Histopathological examination revealed specific lesions associated with the procedure.
    • The study identified and characterized the effects of pigment deposition on ocular tissues.

    Conclusions:

    • Blepharopigmentation carries potential risks to the globe that require careful consideration.
    • Histopathological analysis provides crucial insights into the safety and consequences of this cosmetic surgery.
