Do I Have Ptosis? Will My Eye Bulging Go Away After Spectacles?

May 6, 2012
Asked By:Kooly

My left eye is slightly bulged then right eye, i consulted an eye specialist and he said the bulging is due to increased number & axis but will go after prolonged spectacles use ! Do u people think i hav ptosis?? I am just 18 & i live in Saudi Arabia , here surgery is quite impossible for me ! Can u people suggest home remedy if i have mild ptosis?? Or will the swelling go after using spectacles when my number reduces??
