Ptosis

Ptosis is drooping of the upper eyelid. This can be acquired or congenital. When acquired it is usually caused by stretching of the muscle that elevates the eyelid or detachment from its insertion. As for congenital ptosis, special attention is needed to ensure that it is not affecting vision and vision development. In both cases, a surgery can be done to elevate the muscle and improve vision and looks.
