Ptosis is a condition where the upper eyelids droop lower than normal. It can affect one or both eyes and may be barely noticeable or severe enough to cover the pupil and interfere with vision. Ptosis can happen at birth or it can develop later in life due to aging, injury, nerve problems, or even repeated use of contact lenses. Over time, the muscle that lifts the eyelid can become weak and stretched, causing the lid to hang lower than it should.

Ptosis can affect both appearance and function, people with Ptosis often find that their eyes look tired, sleepy, or smaller. In some cases, they may need to raise their eyebrows constantly to keep their eyes open, which can lead to forehead wrinkles or tension headaches. In more serious cases, the drooping eyelid can block part of the person’s vision, making daily activities or driving more difficult.

Ptosis Surgery at our affiliated clinic is an effective treatment option to lift the eyelid and restore a more natural, open eye look while also improving vision as needed.

Ptosis Surgery works by tightening the muscles that lift the upper eyelid. A small incision is made in the eyelid crease to access and adjust these muscles. In some cases, a simpler method that uses sutures to lift the eyelid may be used. The result is a lifted, more opened eye shape that also helps with any blocked vision caused by the drooping lid.

1. Consultation will be conducted by the doctor.
2. Eye examination will be conducted by the doctor.
3. Local anesthesia will be applied to the eye area.
4. A small incision will be cut in the eyelid fold.
5. The related muscles will be adjusted and lifted in place.
6. The incision will be closed with sutures.
