Q: Full eyelid ptosis correction in a 2-year-old possible through surgery?
Please take your child to an Ocular Plastic Surgeon or Pediatric Ophthalmologist now. If your child's vision is being blocked by their eyelid, they can develop amblyopia. Amblyopia is the poor development of sight which is possible to improve at a younger age but if left untreated can be permanent. Through www.ASOPRS.org you can find a qualified ocular plastic Surgeon for your child's evaluation.
Pediatric ptosis has many corrective methods to lift the eyelid but it is never possible to give a 100% guarantee. Some children need more than one procedure to help achieve appropriate height and contour. Some children can have the muscle called the levator lifted (or tightened); while others may have a "sling" that allows the eye brow muscles to be used to lift the eyelid.
