Wedge resection of the eyelid is a surgical procedure used to remove a triangular-shaped section of eyelid tissue, often to excise tumors, lesions, or other abnormalities. This technique helps to preserve eyelid function and cosmetic appearance by carefully reconstructing the eyelid after the removal. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and can be done on either the upper or lower eyelid, depending on the location of the issue. Recovery usually involves monitoring for swelling and ensuring proper healing of the surgical site.
