I have droopy eyelid on my left eye and I have TMJ syndrome. The more severe joint is on the left side of my face. Does both of them link? What kind of surgery should I have to do? Some doctors recommeded subbrow lift while the others recommended blepharoptosis, incisional eyelid surgery and levator muscle operation. Thank you very much
