A cohort of patients undergoing other oculoplastic procedures with headaches also completed the questionnaire pre- and postoperatively (control group). The study was conducted over a 2-year period.

Mean age was 58.7 and 60.7 years, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in preoperative location of headaches. There was no significant difference in mean Headache Impact Test-6 scores preoperatively, 57.7 study group, 58.1 control group, p = 0.86. Mean postoperative scores were lower (improved) in the study arm, 45.3, as compared with the control arm, 58.6, p
