What is ptosis? Non-incisional vs. incisional ptosis correction

What?

What is ptosis?

When weak eye-opening muscle strength lets the eyelid droop and cover more than 2mm of the pupil
is called ptosis. With ptosis, the pupil is covered considerably more than in a normal eye
is covered, which gives a sleepy or tired-looking impression.
Left untreated, ptosis can cause reduced vision, astigmatism, uneven eyes, forehead wrinkles,
Persistent headaches and other symptoms can occur, so undergoing ptosis correction is
is recommended.

What if less than 80% of the iris shows when your eyes are fully open?

When the eyes are open, 80% or less of the iris is exposed, with only about 1–2mm of the iris showing below the eyelid
If it is not exposed, the eyes look sleepy and give a tired impression.
Because the strength to open the eyes is insufficient, the forehead is furrowed or the brows raised to open them, so
does not look natural.
