| Resumo: | Objective: To report the surgical outcome of aponeurosis surgery in patients with acquired myogenic eyelid ptosis and describe surgical guidelines for their correction. Methods: The clinical records of two patients with acquired myogenic eyelid ptosis after surgical correction were reviewed. Results: In two patients with acquired myogenic eyelid ptosis and barely good levator function, levator resection surgery was performed. Corneal complications appeared in both cases. Conclusion: Patients with acquired myogenic eyelid ptosis are at risk of post-operative surgical complications from corneal exposure. Surgical correction should be conservative and performed only when the visual axis is compromised |
