Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2003
Blepharoptosis is a common complaint of eyelid malposition in which the upper eyelid is lower than normal. There are multiple types of blepharoptosis based on cause, and important studies have recently been published on one type, myogenic blepharoptosis. There have classically been three methods for correcting blepharoptosis. For the most severe cases,

ABSTRACT The eyelid of a patient with apparent unilateral blepharoptosis and a preference for fixation with the contralateral eye, was corrected surgically. However, postoperatively when the preferred (unoperated) eye was used for fixation, the ptosis appeared to have been overcorrected.

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1996
A review is given of the aetiology and possible treatment of acquired (non-congenital), blepharoptosis, which is a common but not specific sign of neurological disease. The diagnostic categories of upper eyelid drooping are scheduled as (a) pseudo-ptosis due to a local process or overactivity of eye closure, including blepharospasm, and (b) true ptosis

A DROOPING lid that covers a normal eye renders a good eye useless, disfigures a face and shuts in a personality. The problem of ptosis looms before the ophthalmologist at various times and must be faced. The surgical procedure used depends on the type of training (ophthalmologist or plastic surgeon) and where the training was obtained.

Blepharoptosis: diagnostic tests
Vestnik oftal'mologii, 2016The article discusses diagnostic algorithms for blepharoptosis in patients with Horner's syndrome, myasthenia, chronic progressive ophthalmoplegia, myotonic dystrophy, and acute neurovascular events. Basic methods for evaluating the upper eyelid position and ptosis severity as well as special pharmacologic stress tests to reveal the true etiology of ...

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1980
Nineteen eyelids were examined histologically in cases of involutional blepharoptosis. Aponeurogenic defects were demonstrated in the majority of cases. A revised classification of acquired blepharoptosis, and the procedure of choice for the correction of this entity are discussed.

Surgical Treatment of Blepharoptosis
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1969Spaeth' and Berke were the first in this country to analyze cases of blepharoptosis. Spaeth's series included both congenital and acquired cases, Berke's only congenital. How ever, Berke also reviewed the abnormalities of the extraocular muscles associated with congenital blepharoptosis.
