I do have ptosis too,everything started when i was 26-27 years old,I am 38,slowly and gradually my right upper eye lid has been getting lower and lower,it's not really bad but i would like this problem to go away,many people called just "lazy eye" i think it is stupid to call it that way,.my wife complaints at me because she thinks the reason my eye lid got like that,is because my rubbing and pushing my lids down very often,but i think my problem is cause for something else.
Hey there....I have graves, I'm having the RAI 131 done tomorrow, pretty nervous about it. Went to the eye doctor to see about my eyes, my right eye is droopy, and the onset of it was pretty sudden. I'm pretty upset with the doctor tho, she was quick to dismiss the ptosis as being related to me wearing contacts. My eyes hurt because I strain trying to hold the droopy eye more open and shut the normal eye. Did you ever have anything done about your eyes?
Yes you have it and if you have Kaiser-Perm like you said.... you know they can correct it with some surgery. Yours does not look bad but it could get worse. I use to look like a male model but now 12 years after the radiation for graves, I look like a monster with bulging eyes. I'm about to consult with my DR to get this corrected. Thanks for all your post... I wish I knew how to post videos but am and older head with more things to keep me busy... maybe I'll get around to it. SF Bay Area also.
Have you gotten it checked out yet? It might not be ptosis. Once I had some clogged ducts in my lower lid & it made my eye look a lot like that. The other eye bulged & looked crazy. Go to your doc before you get yourself all worked up over something that can easily be taken care of. I used baby shampoo on a q-tip & cleaned it out a couple times a day & eventually my eye went back to normal. My doc said it was chalazion but I didn't have an apparent lump or anything. Good luck chica!
