Ptosis Surgery

What is ptosis surgery?

Ptosis surgery is a procedure used to correct abnormal drooping of the upper eyelid, known as ptosis. The condition may affect one or both eyes and, when significant, can interfere with the field of vision.

When is ptosis surgery recommended?

Surgery may be recommended when a drooping eyelid blocks part of the visual field, affects head position while seeing, causes visual fatigue, or produces a significant cosmetic concern. The surgical technique depends on the cause of the ptosis and the function of the eyelid lifting muscle.

What specialist performs ptosis surgery?

The procedure is performed by an ophthalmologist specializing in oculoplastic surgery. The specialist evaluates eyelid position, muscle function, and vision to determine the most appropriate surgical technique.
