How does that work?

I mean the positioning of the lateral canthus - do you know whether it comes forward with the lateral orbital rim ?
I've only ever seen eyes narrow in syndrome cases with bulgy eyes after presumedly massive advancement.

Ok. So lateral canthus 100% doesn't come forward right ?

Sinn says it makes the eyes more narrow. He's confirmed it to me twice. I already have decent eyes with no bulge or scelara show so I'm hoping for dem hunter eyes.

There's also studies that back it up. IIRC the average change was 20% in distance from the lower lid to the centre of the pupil afterwards. Quoting from memory but something like that.

The procedure definitely makes a significant change in orbital volumes.

The one thing it doesn't do is change or add to your existing cheek bone shape. Luckily the shape of mine is high and somewhat visible. So after my LF III it should be a stellar result, in theory. I'll keep you guys updated.

What do you mean it makes a significant change in orbital volume? Also do you know how it affects any other soft tissue aside from the lower eyelid margin? So lateral canthus positioning , eyeball, and so on?

Eyeball is virtually unmoved in most cases.

Lateral canthus is reset at the end.

What do you mean reset at the end? As far as I'm aware the lateral canthus is anchored inside the lateral orbital rim rather than on top of it, or at least this is what I was told by Dr Eppley.

Yet he told me the opposite. I don't have bulgy eyes. My eyes are quite small. I do have minimal scleral show (more in one eye). He said it might help. I'm afraid of ending up with tiny eyes and this surgery seems irreversible. Gunson told me my infraorbital deficiency is mostly lateral.  That's the big problem with osteotomies - they are not very flexible. Sinn said he can vary the osteotomy depending on the case (eg. How far up the orbital rim the cut guess laterally), but I wonder how much is really possible.

can you tell us a bit more such as where are the incisions? does he move the whole orbital ridge? etc. thanks.
