Dr Iyengar is AMAZING! He and his staff went above and beyond! I had a leaky eye - I looked like I was crying all the time! Apparently this is a very delicate surgery but my optometrist assured me that Dr Iyengar at San Diego Eyelid Specialist was an excellent doctor and that is where I should go. He did not even give me the names of any other surgeons! I - of course - had to ask around and literally this was the only name that kept coming up when I would ask people! He took the time to explain the procedure, what would be "happening" during the procedure, what the recovery time and healing would be, and the results - he was very through!! At one point I thought I was having an issue during the first couple of days after the surgery and called the number that was provided to me to use in such an event. Much to my surprise it was Dr Iyengar himself who answered - on a weekend!!! He asked me to send him a picture, got right back to me and all was well!! Seriously above and beyond!!! I would HIGHLY recommend he and his wonderful, helpful staff!!

I recently got my upper eyelids done with Dr. Iyengar. The whole process was such a positive experience. Everyone in that office is supportive and pleasant to work with. Dr. Iyengar has a calm confident presence about him and it shows up in his work. You cant even tell I got this done it looks so natural! I even feel better and can see more in my peripheral vision. The heaviness of my eyelids is gone!! 🙂 im so pleased!!

I could not be happier with my results. When it comes to your eyelids, accept nothing less than an eyelid specialist. Dr. Iyangar is a true expert, and I can't imagine going anywhere else. Thank you!!

Dr. Iyengar was Outstanding! My in depth research paid off. I felt no pain and followed the simple instructions for post recovery. I'd strongly recommend Dr. Iyengar to all my friends. He's the Best!

So pleased with the results . I would definitively recommend Dr. Iyengar for any eyelid plastic surgery

Dr. Iyengar, and his staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The doctor is very efficient. The surgery center is also efficient and has competent staff. I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty. My goals for the procedures were to improve the function of my eyelids and eyelashes as well as expand my visual field. I had a subtle but definite improvement in appearance, with a remarkable improvement in function and I got more of an an improvement in visual field than I thought I would get. I’m very happy that I had this done.

Dr Iyenger provided exceptional care and service His whole office and staff are also top notch. Extremely happy with my outcome. Would highly recommend him to anyone!!

My husband could not be happier with the outcome of his procedure. Fabulous Doctor and staff from start to finish. So glad we choose this doctor as he is the best in the county. Very professional and caring, answered all our questions and put us at ease. When we had a concern after surgery his staff got right back to us. Hard to find this type of service anymore!

Amazing Oculoplastic surgeon. Removed a couple of new lesions on my eyelid right on the spot! Healed perfectly without a trace. Highly recommend!

I went to Dr. Iyengar to remove a small growth on my upper lid lash line after both my dermatologist and optometrist said they did not feel comfortable removing it. My optometrist referred me to Dr. Iyengar “for all things eyelids”. That initial appointment ended with a discussion about my eye bags and an outpatient surgical procedure called lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. This procedure removes the excess skin under your lower eyelid but instead of removing the fat pads, they are repositioned beneath the lower lid so that it provides a seamless transition between your lower eyelid and upper check bone (no hollow eye look caused from removing rather than repositioning the fat). When the fat is repositioned it also naturally fills the tear trough line so both the line and bag go away. I had always planned on aging naturally, but my eyebags were so prominent that eventually I stopped wearing eye makeup. Why would I want to bring any attention to that area? I know my self-esteem shouldn’t be driven by my appearance, but I no longer liked the way I looked, and it was having an impact on how I felt. I made an appointment for a surgery consultation after I had thought about it and had time to research the procedure, complications, and risks. Dr. Iyengar answered all my questions and his nurse, who had the procedure done, gave me her perspective from both the patient and medical side. They both made me feel very comfortable and confident that I had picked the right surgeon. The procedure was painless and after about two weeks I was comfortable going out without feeling like everyone could tell I had surgery. The biggest complaint was nausea from the anesthesia which lasted about two days and the boredom that comes from letting your eyes rest for a few days. I am almost 5-months post-op and the results are fantastic! My only regret is not doing it sooner. Eye bags are gone, tear trough is almost non-existent, and an unexpected bonus is I have less wrinkles around my eyes because of the excess skin removal. I am happy to look in the mirror again and recognize the person staring back at me. My friends say I look 15 years younger. I am no longer told I look tired. Dr. Iyengar is a brilliant surgeon, and a compassionate person with a good sense of humor. Kristina, his medical assistant, was patient and diligent in answering my pre-op and post-op questions, even when their office was closed for the holidays! His office staff are on top of their game. He has my full confidence. Highly recommend him!
