Failed ptosis surgery - upper eyelids are still droopy
Failed Ptosis Surgery
Went to Dr Heher’s office for a consultation for my droopy eyelids. She told me I had congenital ptosis and that I needed ptosis surgery and blepharoplasty together to improve my eyes. She also proceeded to tell me this would be a “crap shoot” and that she could make me better. She wasn’t very optimistic despite her friendly manner. I had the surgery and it failed completely.
Upper eyelids are still droopy and also uneven with one eye more open than the other one. When I had the follow up visit after my surgery, Dr. Heher said i was “out of luck” when I asked if a second surgery would open my eyes more. I was so depressed I hardly go out and interact socially and wear sunglasses as much as I can. If any of you need ptosis surgery, spend your money elsewhere.

I’m sorry to hear that. You should check out Dr Taban in Los Angeles, California here in the USA. I’m doing my second surgery with him and he is well known for correcting failed ptosis surgeries.
