East Asian blepharoplasty

upper eyelid with a crease (i.e. "double eyelid") from an eyelid that is naturally without a crease (also known as a "single eyelid" or "monolid").^[1]

Sub-Saharan Africans.^[2] While some East Asians have a double eyelid and some do not, there is also a large variation in the crease position (double eyelid size) of the East Asian upper eyelid.^{[citation needed]} The upper lid fold can range from 1 mm (0.039 in) above the eyelash line to about 10 mm (0.39 in).^{[citation needed]} Several methods can be used to create the double eyelid—including the full-incisional, partial incision and no incision methods (e.g. the DST method).^{[citation needed]} Each has its advantages depending on the patient's anatomy and desires.^{[citation needed}

epicanthal fold (i.e., an epicanthoplasty) is often performed in conjunction with an East Asian blepharoplasty.^[5]
