Ptosis of right eye on waking. What might this be? (Photo)

Asked By:Brawl in Australia, AU

My right eyelid is drooping when I wake very day for past two weeks, it was partially shut for first week but seems to be getting worse. It resolves within about a minute of waking. I also feel my eyelid getting heavy at night when I'm tired. Nothing I've read about ptosis talks about it only being on waking. Any ideas of what it might be?
