How do I know if I can make an eye bag surgery claim?

The surgeons and clinics responsible for carrying out eye bag surgery have a duty of care to ensure patients’ safety and wellbeing. This means that they operate with a high degree of accountability, as a botched procedure can result in considerable and long-lasting physical and psychological damage.

For this reason, clinics and surgeons are not only responsible for managing the risk factors that would be classed as reasonably preventable, but also for providing information on any potentially unpreventable complications. The patient should then be asked to provide informed consent.

Should you feel that your surgeon did not fulfil this duty of care and your procedure has gone wrong, you may be eligible to make an eye bag surgery claim.

What are the signs that my eye bag surgery has gone wrong?

Eye bag removal is an extremely popular cosmetic surgery treatment, and while the majority of procedures are successful, mistakes can occur that can have long-lasting physical and emotional effects.

When eye bag surgery has gone wrong, patients may experience any of the following complications:

• Preventable or poorly treated infection
• Removal of too much skin
• Removal of too little skin or tissue
• Blurred or impared vision, which can lead to acute glaucoma
• Partial or complete blindness
• Ectropion (out-turning of the lower eyelid)
• Excessive or inappropriately placed scarring
