Squint + ptosis + lazy eye correction
Hello Doctor, I have a lazy eye in right eye which also slightly tilts cross right(upper) side. Along with this I have also been imbalanced eyelid. As I was asked to wear a lens during my childhood in the lazy eye n due to forceful trials on right side, i got droopy cheeks. I will be opting for facelift in future. I'm also looking forward for the correction of my imbalanced eyelids and squint. I would like to what can be done n where to get the correction. Will it be considered as cosmetic surgery?  If no, then what is the difference between cosmetic eye surgery and correction surgery? Will there be difference in results? Approx cost of the treatment. Please help and suggest the best. Thank you in advance.

The lazy eye can't be corrected at this age. As far as squint and ptosis is concerned, in your case.. Being a lazy eye it would be a Cosmetic procedure and not a therapeutic one ( ptosis surgery is therapeutic when it can help in improving the eyesight, same with squint surgery). You need to consult an oculoplasty surgeon for further guidance on results as per your case and the cost.
