What kind of ptosis surgery can also lower my eyelid crease? (Photo)

July 23, 2024
Asked By:Craigsisnotalist in Oakland, California

Dear doctors, could you please advise on what kind of surgery I should have to address my issue? About 8 months ago my left eyelid started to droop and the crease is now much higher. In general I feel that both eyelids no longer retract like they used to. Both lids look normal in the morning and the left one droops and the crease gets higher as the day goes on Can you also say if crease lowering is actually achievable?
