PROCEDURE

  • Local anesthesia is administered.
  • Then, it is assessed whether simply lifting the eyelid and anchoring it in its original position is sufficient. However, if the problem is more severe, it may be necessary to strengthen the muscle with supplementation techniques and provide better fixation with another muscle.
  • Usually, this procedure does not take much time, and the expected results are achieved in the short term.
