  Age, certain diseases, and certain cosmetic treatments can affect the muscles and skin of the upper and lower eyelids in several ways. Often the problem is simply cosmetic, but in other cases it may interfere with vision or cause eye irritation, leading to watery eyes and other difficulties.

  Common eyelid problems include excess eyelid skin, droopy eyelids or eyelids that turn inward or outward. The problems can cause eye discomfort, limit vision, and affect appearance. These problems are usually nothing to worry about, they can be corrected with surgery.
