Can ptosis be corrected without creating a double eyelid?

Yes, it can, that is my straight answer. Because we can create a hidden fold, now, the tricky part is "can ptosis be corrected without creating a cut or scar? " Yes, it can, but that is really for mild ptosis, where we correct with a procedure that does not involve making a cut on the skin. But for mild ptosis, unfortunately, it might not be insurance or Medisave claimable, but it can be corrected.

Is there any difference in treating older patients as opposed to treating a younger patient for Ptosis?

It starts from the beginning, the older patients have a high chance of having medical problems, so we gotta make sure that they are medically healthy and are not on certain medications or blood thinners, so you want to clear that out. The second thing is older patients tend to have more looser skin and are likely to have to live with this droopy eyelid for a long period of time that plays a role in recovery.

Can I physically feel if I have droopy eyelids?

No. This is not something that you can feel, it’s not a traditional muscle tear or injury. Let’s say you go to a gym or doing sports, you know when you have torn your muscle because it gets very painful, ptosis is not like that, you do not have or feel a sudden acute pain, you do not feel anything snap, it’s not this sudden event but more like a cumulative injury to the tendon. So it may be many years of eye rubbing or many years contact lens wear, things like that, it’s not an acute event.
