A thorough understanding of upper eyelid anatomy is essential for the ptosis surgeon. The upper eyelid consists of skin, orbicularis, septum, tarsus, levator, Muller’s muscle, and conjunctiva. The skin and orbicularis form the anterior lamella. Conceptually, the orbicularis may be subdivided according to its topography into pretarsal, preseptal, and ...

Yohimbine Potentiation of Reserpine Blepharoptosis
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1962Yohimbine, with an oral LD60 in mice of 36.5 mg./Kg. (S.E. = ±3.02), does not show any reserpine-like sedative-blepharoptotic activity in nonlethal dosage. Using factorially designed, graded response assays, yohimbine was shown to potentiate reserpine palpebral ptosis significantly for at least 5 hours when administered concurrently with and at the ...

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.

Neurological Sciences, 2016Blepharoptosis or drooping of upper eye lid is a common, but non-specific sign of neurological diseases which sometimes could herald a life-threatening disorder. First, the diagnosis of ptosis should be established by considering four clinical measurements: palpebral fissure height, marginal reflex distance, upper eyelid crease, and levator function ...

Blepharoptosis is a common presenting complaint of patients presenting for medical evaluation. As etiologies vary from acute neurologic issues to mechanical age-related changes, proper diagnosis is essential. Blepharoptosis may be a sign of impending neurologic or systemic disease, further warranting diagnostic evaluations.

Present Status of Blepharoptosis Surgery
Postgraduate Medicine, 1963Ptosis may be surgically corrected by shortening the levator muscle of the eyelid, suspending the eyelid from the frontalis muscle, or employing the superior rectus muscle.The most widely used and most applicable procedure is levator resection, which may be done by either the skin or the conjunctival approach.The most difficult problem in levator ...
