  • Eyes Lid Drooping

    by Dr. Karen Leggett
    Drooping of one or both of the eyelids is called ptosis or blepharoptosis. It may involve one or both eyes. There are many causes of a drooping eyelid, some of which are particularly common in the elderly. Often the drooping comes on very gradually and the patient is not aware of the change.
