Eye ptosis that comes and goes - what are my options? (Photo)

Asked By:teenreb in Orlando, Florida

My left eye seems to have ptosis which comes and goes or change in severity, though I would say more often than not it looks droopy like in the first picture. Why might this be and what are my options for treatment in such a case?
