is there any way to fix congenital ptosis of the eye without surgery?
Katrine S asked:
i have congenital ptosis in my left eye and surgery is very expensive and i only want it for cosmetic purposes, so my parents won’t pay for it. it does obstruct my vision but not detrimentally. could i get the insurance to cover it? or can i use a non-surgical method?

Sorry, there is no non-surgical treatment for ptosis. As operations go, the operation is simple and quick. You might like to wait until you can make your own decisions. Peter H
