At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts in Sarasota, FL, we understand the impact that eyelid ptosis, or blepharoptosis, can have on your vision, appearance, and self-esteem. Ptosis, characterized by the drooping of the upper eyelid, can result from aging, injury, neurological conditions or congenital factors. Our expert team provides tailored solutions to restore both functionality and aesthetics, helping patients regain confidence and improve their quality of life.

Our specialized oculoplastic surgeons use advanced techniques to repair eyelid ptosis, focusing on elevating the eyelid to a natural position. Procedures may include tightening or reattaching the levator muscle or, in some cases, using the forehead muscles to assist in lifting the eyelid. This approach not only improves vision but also rejuvenates the appearance of the eyes.

Before treatment, each patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation to determine the underlying cause of ptosis and identify the most appropriate surgical plan. Procedures are typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia with sedation, ensuring patient comfort and minimizing recovery time. Post-operative care includes detailed instructions to promote healing, with most swelling and bruising resolving within a few weeks.

At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts in Sarasota, FL, we specialize in diagnosing and treating eyelid ptosis, commonly known as droopy eyelid. This condition occurs when the levator palpebrae superioris muscle weakens or detaches, leading to sagging eyelids. Understanding the diverse causes and contributing factors is essential for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, which we provide with precision and care.

Eyelid ptosis can result from various factors, and at Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we provide expert diagnosis and treatment tailored to each cause. Congenital ptosis, present from birth, arises from improper levator muscle development and may be hereditary or linked to genetic syndromes. Early diagnosis is essential, and our team specializes in managing these cases with care.

Age-related ptosis, caused by weakening or stretching of the levator muscle due to aging, is common in adults. We offer advanced treatments to restore a youthful appearance. Neurological disorders, such as Myasthenia Gravis, Horner’s Syndrome, and Third Nerve Palsy, can impair eyelid movement, and we create tailored plans for these complex cases. Muscle disorders like Myotonic Dystrophy and Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy also contribute to ptosis and require precise management strategies.

Additional causes include eyelid trauma, systemic conditions like diabetes or thyroid disease, infections, and certain medications. Our skilled team uses advanced diagnostic tools and reconstructive techniques to address these diverse causes, restoring eyelid function and appearance with expert care.
