How Does The Ptosis Surgery Happen?
The basic surgery is determined by whether the eyelid raising LPS muscle (levator palpebrae superioris muscle) is strong or very weak. If the muscle is relatively strong, The surgery generally consists of operating on the muscle that elevates your eyelid, & making it stronger and thereby able to work better, that is elevating your eyelid higher (LPS eyelid surgery).
In other cases, where the eyelid raising muscle is very weak, the eyelid muscle itself may not be able to elevate the eyelid & in such cases, the forehead muscle needs to be connected to the eylid muscle, to raise it (Tarso-Frontal Sling Surgery). The sling material used to connect the forehead and the eylid muscle may be natural (Tensor Fascia lata sling) por artificial (silicone rod or Goretox or suture sling material). The eyelid surgeon, however tests you and discovers the exact problem and suggests to you the best surgery to treat it.
Recovery After Surgery
The recovery after this surgery is reasonably simple. While brusing, redness & watering may persist for a week, fact is most people are able to see well enough to use the computer or see the TV the very next day. There will usually be no scars left after the surgery.
