The plaintiff was unhappy with how his eyelid creases looked after surgery and applied eggs on them as part of his own 'traditional therapy'.
SINGAPORE: The director of a property investment firm was unhappy with the outcome of a surgery on his eyelids, which left him with"high and prominent upper eyelid creases".
The surgeries were carried out on Oct 11, 2013 as planned. Mr Lee stayed in hospital overnight instead of being discharged that day, as his eyes were swollen, affecting his vision. Mr Lee said he had been using"traditional therapy" with eggs to reduce the swelling and was advised against it. He asked for topical creams for scar therapy as he was returning to China and was prescribed some.
Dr Khoo found it difficult to examine him due to his squinting and blinking, and noted that the swelling had resolved but that Mr Lee had asymmetric eyelid creases. He also claimed, among other things, the outcome of the surgery was not the expected aesthetic result that was promised. He said he received double eyelids, which he had not requested.THE DEFENCE
Dr Khoo said the blepharoplasty was not intended to and did not construct double eyelids for Mr Lee, as he originally already had double eyelids.
