Abstract
A lid retractor for use, for example, in transconjuntival blepharoplasty electrosurgery on eyelids which avoids having to move the retractor during the procedure. The lid retractor comprises an elongated handle which at one end, the gripper end, divides into several projections each terminating in a hook that can be placed over the lower lid to enable the lower lid to be retracted to access lid or eye regions under the lid retractor. The gripper is dimensioned so that the whole eyelid can be pulled down such that several fat compartments under the eyelid can be accessed, visualized, and surgically treated without having to move the lid retractor position.
