It could be due to dryness or early fatiquability due to nutritional deficiency or myasthenia gr avis.
Pl ease take ink or tab methyl cobalamine 1500iu on alternate for 3wks .and put lubricant eye drops e.g. teardrop 2to3 times daily.
If still the problem persists then consult an ophthalmologist or a neurologist.

Hello
Is there any diurnal variation in dropping of lids?
If yes...then most probable diagnosis is myasthenia
Having said that it is provisional diagnosis.
I would recommend you to consult local ophthalmologist

It is eyelid ptosis
Could be related to myasthenia gravis
Or lagophthalmos related to facial nerve palsy
Leading to incomplete eyelid closure > dryness and eye pain
Next Steps
Consult Ophthalmologist to evaluate cause of eyelid drooping and appropriate management
