Ptosis Repair
When an upper eyelid droops, it can make you look tired, affect your appearance, and even block your vision. Ptosis Repair is a specialized procedure designed to correct this condition, helping to lift the eyelid and restore a more open, alert look and improved visual comfort.
At Round Rock Eye Consultants, our dedicated team understands the delicate nature of the eye area. We offer both internal and external ptosis repair techniques to address your specific needs and achieve optimal results.
What is Ptosis Repair?
Upper eyelid muscles can weaken or stretch overtime and contribute to eyelid drooping, which leads to reduced vision, neck strain, and inability to fully open the eyes. There are two different approaches to addressing this problem:
- Scarless repair/ internal ptosis repair- this technique involves tightening the muscle from inside the eyelid, and avoids visible scarring.
- External ptosis repair- this technique allows for adjusting the muscle through an incision in the eyelid, and is often reserved for those for whom the scarless approach may not provide a sufficient lift.
Benefits of Ptosis Repair
Patients who undergo ptosis repair often experience a range of positive outcomes:
- Improved Vision: Lifting the eyelid can clear your line of sight, making it easier to see, read, and perform daily activities.
- Reduced Eye Fatigue: No longer straining to keep your eyelids open can significantly lessen discomfort and fatigue in your eyes.
- Enhanced Appearance & Symmetry: Ptosis repair can create a more balanced and refreshed appearance, restoring the natural symmetry of your eyes.
