Miss Priya Raman, FRCOphth

Miss Priya Raman (FRCOphth) is a consultant oculoplastic surgeon, an ophthalmologist who subspecialises in surgery of the eyelids and the tissues around the eye: upper and lower blepharoplasty, droopy-lid (ptosis) repair, and the lower-lid work where the margin between a good result and a lid that will not sit correctly is narrowest.

She fact-checks the clinical content on Babyface, keeping an eye on the parts that matter most near the eye: how the upper and lower techniques are described, the figures on recovery and on complications such as dry eye and lid malposition, when hooding is functional rather than cosmetic, and the honest account of who should think twice. Where the writing drifts toward a promise, she pulls it back to what the evidence actually supports.

Her review is a credential, not a consultation. Whether eyelid surgery suits you, whether the heaviness is your lids or your brow, and what result is realistic are questions for a surgeon who can examine your own eyes, test your tear film, and follow you up afterwards.
