Ptosis Correction is a type of blepharoplasty that creates

incision lines across the surface of the eyelids to correct the

shape & size of the eyelids. This procedure is usually

performed to correct thick eyelids with excessive adipose

tissues, or to correct sagging droopy eyelids.

• The most obvious sign of ptosis is the drooping upper eyelid. Depending on how severely the eyelid droops, people with ptosis are often concerned about the cosmetic appearance. Vision may also be affected depending on how low the eyelid is relative to the pupil. Sometimes people with ptosis tilt their heads back to try to see or raise their eyebrows constantly try to lift the eyelids. • Ptosis which is present since birth is typically the result

of a developmental defect in the levator muscle. Adult, or acquired ptosis, is usually associated with the thinning or detachment of the levator muscle tendon. • A droopy eyelid can also be the result of trauma after

significant eyelid swelling. It may also be caused can also by neurologic conditions
