Ptosis And eye strain

2017-02-06 13:18:49
Sir/madam .i have ptosis to my right eye and a mild Ptosis to the left. i have it right from birth.i had a sling surgery to the right eye twice at the age of 13 and 14 which was not successful. Now I want to try it once again. Please do suggest me which option to prefer 1-to lift up the muscle of both eyes or just one to make it symmetrical . The most concerning issue is these days I do have lot of strain on the right eye which I feel it on the right part of forehead all along right side head. Is it coz of the ptosis ?coz I haven't experiencing only from 4 months with this intensity.

In my earlier year when I used to ptosis surgery while working in Regional Eye Institute Sitapur UP, in my experience  in sling operation one should do overcorrection because later on after a year or so there is slight drooping of eye lid,so my advice to you ,first get operated of right eye slightly overcorrected so that in a year or so both eyes could match each other with regards Dr Arjun kr Singh Patna.
