Ptosis Surgery For Drooping of the Upper Eyelids
Ptosis is drooping of the upper eyelid due to the supporting muscles not being strong enough to raise the eyelid properly. Ptosis surgery may be necessary when ptosis has caused the eyelid to partially or completely block vision. Ptosis can occur in both children and in adults. The most common type in adults, “involutional ptosis” results from the stretching or thinning of the supporting eyelid muscles, the levator muscle, specifically the levator aponeurosis. The drooping eyelids (ptosis) can occur slowly over time, and people assume that the eyes have gotten smaller. For people dealing with ptosis, changing eyeglasses and undergoing other surgeries (i.e. cataract surgery) will not solve the issue; however eyelid ptosis surgery, can improve vision and appearance.
