The complication of extraocular muscle palsy following blepharoplasty is rare. In a review of 920 blepharoplasties at Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, three well-documented cases of diplopia following blepharoplasty could be found. Only one of these cases resolved within two months postoperatively. The explanation offered for this phenomenon is a Volkmann type contracture of the extraocular muscles following edema and hemorrhage into the muscle sheath.
