After a couple visits to my Optometrist, I was diagnosed with Ptosis when I went to visit Dr. Amatto at TOC. My eyelids were drooping over my eyeballs a bit too much that it was affecting my vision especially at night. Every light in my sight (street lights, car lights, break lights, etc....) were streaking down and blocking part of my vision.
I scheduled the surgery, very nervous mind you, but I can honestly say that I didn't feel a thing during the surgery. It went by so smoothly and fast. I was VERY impressed! I was very happy with the staff and especially Dr. Amatto, very friendly and helped me from being so nervous. I stayed at home for the next 4 days icing and taking it easy. It has now been almost 4 months and I do see quite an improvement. My eyes do open a lot more than they did before, the long streaks from lights have improved immensely, and it's so nice to see my Hazel eyes again!

I was tired of being asked if I was sleepy or high. I had the Ptosis surgery done due to my vision being impaired at night. I had the cheek implants because I was starting to have a sunken in look.

This is a about the time that the Ptosis surgery was finally showing my eyelids to come up. And this was also the day before my cheek implants

I know it looks a bit scary, but it really wasn't painful at all. The doctor put those stitches just make sure the bottom section of my eyes didn't droop down from where they made the incision.

Swelling as disappeared and I'm a bit skeptical about the outcome

I am happy with the results. My eyelids have made a huge improvement and my cheeks have been improved as well.
