Ptosis Correction Surgery on Asian Eyes Needs an Oculoplastic Surgeon with Asian Eyelid Experience

Most cases wherein one eyelid is lower than other can be referred to as ptosis, or drooping of the eyelid. In cases such as these, it’s important to identify whether the ptosis is acquired (it developed later on in the patient’s life) or congenital (the patient was born with it), as this will dictate what the following steps should be. In cases wherei ptosis was acquired, the patient will need to visit an ophthalmologist in order to determine what caused it. If the ptosis is congenital, the patient will need to visit an oculoplastic surgeon to determine what ideal steps should be taken next. If the patient has generally good muscle function in the eyelids, ptosis surgery can be performed. Ptosis surgery is a procedure where the levator muscle, or the muscle that lifts the eyelid, is operated on to improve the function and appearance of the drooping eyelid. Proper determination of ideal candidates for ptosis surgery is done through a detailed physical examination and evaluation of the eyelids. Ptosis surgery is performed by oculoplastic or oculofacial plastic surgeons, as this procedure lies within the realm of their specialty and they are specifically trained for it. Patients of Asian descent are advised to seek out an oculoplastic surgeon who has significant experience in treating Asian eyes, as this particular eye type requires a number of additional considerations in anatomy, approach, and type of surgery.
