Congenital blepharoptosis presents within the first year of life either in isolation or as a part of many different ocular or systemic disorders. Surgical repair is challenging, and recurrence necessitating more than one operation is not uncommon. Not all patients with congenital ptosis require surgery, but children with amblyopia due to astigmatic ...

Two hundred twenty-six consecutive surgical ptosis cases were carefully evaluated to establish the incidence of strabismus in ptosis. The overall incidence of strabismus in surgical ptosis patients was found to be 36%. Most remarkable were the findings in 113 congenital ptosis patients; 32% of these patients were found to have strabismus.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1994
Recent advances in local anesthetic techniques have led to suggestions that buffered solutions for infiltration increase patient comfort. The use of an eutectic mixture of local anesthetics cream has however proved to be disappointing. The use of monopolar electrocautery, carbon dioxide lasers, and high-frequency radio wave electrosection provide the ...

Amblyopia can result from strabismus, anisometropia, media opacities, and congenital disorders such as nystagmus. Complicated forms of ptosis (ie, associated with neurofibroma or hemangioma) are also known to cause amblyopia. A previously unconfirmed cause of amblyopia is uncomplicated ptosis.

A droopy eyelid is a common problem. Causes may range from simple and non-progressive disorders such as congenital ptosis to progressive multisystemic disorders such as mitochondrial disease. Myasthenia gravis is a very important and treatable cause of ptosis that should always be considered in the differential diagnosis.

A 10-year-old girl presented with painless unilateral left upper lid ptosis. A nontender hard mass was palpated in the left upper lid. Blood smear was compatible with the diagnosis of leukemia. The cause of ptosis was now thought to be a mass composed of myeloid blast cells (myeloid sarcoma).
