In more severe ptosis cases, the pupil can be covered, causing an obstruction of the patient's vision, creating a hollowed appearance in the upper lid.
Ptosis correction is performed under local anaesthetic and is classified as day surgery.
Step 1
To ensure that this is the best path forward for you, a consultation with Dr Arianayagam will be booked to assess your eyelid and confirm that this procedure will rectify the issue for you.
Step 2
Dr Arianayagam will present you with the best available option, making a professional recommendation while providing you with all of the information you need about the procedure and recovery process.
Step 3
You will be given the opportunity to speak with previous patients who have undergone ptosis correction to prepare and gain peace of mind in the skills of the PCLS team by hearing personal stories.
Step 4
A second consultation will follow a week or so later for any final questions and to confirm your decision.
Step 5
Surgery is performed under local anaesthesia and sedation as a day procedure. All of your aftercare instructions will be supplied by our team who are also on hand should you need them during your recovery.
