Complications of Asian Double Eyelid Surgery: Prevention and Management

AbstractDouble eyelid surgery remains one of the most popular aesthetic surgeries, especially among East Asian populations. Complications related to double eyelid surgery can be divided into various categories: (1) patient dissatisfaction, (2) problems with the eyelid crease, (3) problems with the eyelid height, (4) suture-related complications, and (5) complications related to eyelid surgery in general. As with all eyelid surgeries, it is important to understand and appreciate the normal and abnormal function and anatomy of the Asian eyelid to reduce the risk of complications. It is also important to recognize the various complications and their underlying causes so that the surgeon can confidently revise the surgery to achieve optimal outcomes.

Using Data

The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between efficiency and patient satisfaction for a sample of general, acute care hospitals in Ontario, Canada. A measure of patient satisfaction at the hospital level was constructed using data from a province-wide survey of patients in mid-1999. A measure of efficiency was constructed using data from a cost model used by the Ontario Ministry of Health, the primary funder of hospitals in Ontario. In accordance with previous studies, the model also included measures of hospital size, teaching status and rural location. Based on the results of this study, at a 95% confidence level, there does appear to be evidence to suggest that an inverse relationship between hospital efficiency and patient satisfaction exists. However, the magnitude of the effect appears to be small. Hospital size and teaching status also appear to affect satisfaction, with lower satisfaction scores reported among non-teaching and larger hospitals. This study did not find any evidence to suggest that hospital location (rural versus urban) or religious affiliation contributed to reports of patient satisfaction in any way not explained by the other measures included in the study. The findings imply that low patient satisfaction cannot be explained by excessive management concentration on efficiency. Managers should analyse some of the underlying causes of patient dissatisfaction before reconfiguring resources. It may be beneficial in larger hospitals to study the aspects of care that patients have reported they prefer in small hospitals.
