i have a ptosis of my right eye.?!


Question: I have a ptosis of my right eye.?
i have recently moved to a small midwest town and did research..i do not believe they can correct this..any suggestions??? thank you..

Answers:

By Ptosis... you mean your top eye lid is drooping down, covering more of your eye?...

The treatment depends on the cause....
If it's skin inelasticity... due to old age.. then it's easy.. and it's a cosmetic surgery job.

If it's neurological problem, you need to see a neuro-ophthalmologist to work out what part(s) of your brain/nerves are having problems.

If it's a muscular problem... also see your ophthalmologist... and lastly...

It could also be a systemic problem (eg..cardiovascular disease)... and that too, you need to see your Ophthalmologist.

Hope I've helped.
