Ptosis or drooping of the eyelids can be age-related, when the muscle that lifts the upper eyelids called the levator muscle weakens and stretches with age. The lengthened muscle causes the eyelids to droop and cover the pupil, and can affect vision, making corrective surgery a necessity. Ptosis correction surgery is done exclusively by oculoplastic/ oculofacial plastic surgeons.
