I have had two ptosis surgeries for my left eye (bilatera surgery in 2017 and it seemed to fail so another surgery in 2018 on just my left lid). My left lid seems to befalling again and it almost feels like the muscle that lifts my eye is numb and tired. It’s a very odd feelin that I can’t explain. I have excess skin on my lids that is also pressing down onto the lids itself. Would a third ptosis surgery make this odd numb feeling worse? Should a bleph also be performed to relieve the heaviness?
