My eyes don't open very far. Very little of the whites of my eyes can be seen. Can this be corrected?I am not talking about a Blepharoplasty, although I may get that, also, if this other procedure can be done.
Answer: Blepharoplasty or ptosis repair There are some procedures that can be done to make the eyes more open. Blepharoplasty can help with the upper eyelid fold and crease by removing heaviness above the eyelids. Ptosis repair and small resection of Muller’s muscle can actually open the eyelid more than it currently does. For many examples of cosmetic upper blepharoplasty, please see the link and the video below

Answer: Sounds like eyelid ptosis Opening the eyes up wider, and not adressing th eskin weighing down on the eyelid is refering to repair of upper eyelid ptosis. This involves tucking the muscle and can be done form the from or the back of the upper eyelid. After surgery one can expect wider opened eyes, but less eyelid platform showming (like roling up blinds on a window).
