Private entropion or ectropion surgery costs from £2,534 at Eye Surgery Clinic. A lower-lid entropion or ectropion repair is £2,534, while an upper-lid entropion repair with a flap or graft is £2,745. Every package is all-inclusive of the consultation, day-case surgery, theatre, your surgeon and aftercare, with 0% finance available and insurance accepted.
Entropion & ectropion prices
The fee depends on which eyelid is affected and how complex the repair is — for example, whether a flap or graft is needed. Your surgeon confirms the exact procedure and quote at your assessment.
Each price includes consultation, day-case surgery, theatre, surgeon and aftercare. Most patients return to non-strenuous activity within a few days, and stitches are typically removed at one week. Eyelid surgery is part of our wider oculoplastics pricing; if you have an eyelid lump rather than malposition, see chalazion treatment costs.
Not sure if it’s entropion or ectropion? A consultation confirms the diagnosis and the cause, then gives you a clear plan and quote.

Treatment options explained
Treatment is personalised. Some people need short-term relief to protect the eye, while others benefit from a definitive eyelid procedure to restore normal lid position.
- Lubricating drops & ointment — reduce friction and exposure symptoms and protect the surface short-term.
- Managing blepharitis or dry eye — addresses contributing inflammation that worsens irritation and watering.
- Entropion repair — corrects the inward-rotating lid so lashes and skin no longer rub the eye.
- Ectropion repair — tightens and repositions the lid to reduce exposure and help tears drain normally.
The exact technique depends on the cause — age-related laxity, scarring, or facial-nerve weakness. Read more about the entropion and ectropion conditions, our specialist entropion eyelid surgery, or wider oculoplastics treatment.
Recovery and aftercare
Some swelling and bruising around the eyelid is common, and the eye may feel watery or gritty while the surface settles. You may be prescribed ointment or drops to protect the eye and reduce infection risk, and a follow-up is arranged to review healing and eyelid position. Plan transport home as your vision may be temporarily blurred, avoid rubbing the eye, and tell us in advance if you use anticoagulants (blood thinners). The goal is improved eyelid position and better comfort; if the underlying cause is complex, further management may occasionally be needed.
