Ptosis Repair - Left Eye - Bellevue, WA
My left eyelid had begun drooping over the past...
My left eyelid had begun drooping over the past year or so, due to aging. The upper lid had also begun to appear oddly folded and sunken in. This caused me to be VERY self conscious and was affecting my quality of life. Although I only had a mild case of ptosis I decided to have an oculoplastic surgeon perform corrective surgery. I was awake for the procedure, it didn't last more than 30 minutes, and the recovery was relatively painless - just minor irritation from the sucher underneath my eyelid for a few weeks. I am very pleased with the result and am so happy I opted for surgery. At this time, a decision on insurance coverage is still pending, but the cost was well worth it, regardless.
