Eyelid Ptosis Surgery Internal Approach Overview - 899

Eyelid Ptosis Surgery Internal Approach

3d try-on

The internal approach to ptosis repair may be directed toward the Müller muscle, the tarsus, or the levator aponeurosis. Müller muscle resections are used in patients who have an adequate upper eyelid position and need repair of minimal ptosis (2 mm). In this procedure, the surgeon turns the eyelid inside out and shortens the eyelid muscles from the inside of the eyelid.
