Causal Association Between Lifestyle Behavior and Potential Risk Factors With Blepharoptosis
ABSTRACT Background Blepharoptosis is among the most common disorders of eyelid malposition that may influence appearance and damage visual function, and both of these can have negative effects on the quality of life. Various types of blepharoptosis have been reported, including neurogenic, traumatic, congenital, mechanical, psychogenic, and myogenic ...
