Cataract surgery can cause Ptosis (droopy lids). I would discuss the problem with your Cataract surgeon, prior to your next surgery. Eyelid surgery, (blepharoplasty) is the method most often used to correct Ptosis. Unfortunately, Blepharoplasty is considered cosmetic surgery, which is generally not covered by health insurance.
