Cat eye surgery, also known as canthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at creating a more youthful and lifted appearance to the eyes. During this surgery, the outer corner of the eye, known as the lateral canthus, is repositioned or tightened to elevate the outer corners of the eyes. This results in a subtle "cat eye" shape, characterized by a lifted and elongated appearance to the eyes. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and may involve making small incisions at the outer corners of the eyes to access and adjust the tissues. Cat eye surgery is often chosen by individuals seeking to rejuvenate the appearance of their eyes, reduce the appearance of sagging or drooping eyelids, and achieve a more alert and refreshed look. It can be done as a standalone procedure or combined with other eyelid surgeries or facial rejuvenation treatments for comprehensive results. Recovery time is usually minimal, with most patients able to resume normal activities within a week or two following surgery.
