Ptosis surgery is performed to correct ptosis, or drooping eyelids, which can interfere with vision and affect the overall appearance of the face. The procedure involves tightening or reattaching the muscles that lift the eyelids, ensuring they can function properly.

Ptosis can occur due to aging, muscle weakness, or injury, and surgery is typically recommended if the drooping is severe enough to impair vision or self-esteem. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia, and recovery time is relatively short.

Ptosis surgery can restore both the function and appearance of the eyelids, improving vision and providing a more youthful look.
