Ptosis

Ptosis refers to a drooping upper eyelid. It happens when the muscles raising the eyelid are weak, and it can be caused by some diseases, injury, or genetics. In children, ptosis can lead to the ‘lazy eye’ syndrome, and it needs to be corrected with surgery.

1. Which doctor should I consult for Ptosis?

You can visit an opthalmologist if you have drooping eyelids or ptosis.

2. How does Ptosis occur in old age?

The skin on the eyelid is the most thinnest and tends to stretch, this stretched skin limits the ability to see, and may produce a feeling of heaviness. In the lower eyelids bags are formed.
