Symptoms of droopy eyes might include:
- fatigue
- headaches
- difficulty with opening the eyes sufficiently, or
- a reduction in visual fields.
A patient with upper eyelid ptosis would have:
- eyes that are significantly smaller (either both or one)
- forehead muscle over-activity (forehead creases and elevated eyebrows)
- hollowing of the upper eyelid area (often due to fat retraction), and
- reduced visual fields (on visual field testing).
