The Ptosis Prop
Ptosis prop (also known as eye crutches) are a non-surgical solution to Ptosis, also known as drooping eyelid syndrome.
Affected eyes do not have the ability to open and close properly. In severe cases, a person is not able to open the affected eyelid.
Ptosis eye props are bespoke components installed to eyewear that support the affected eyelid, enabling the eyelid to stay open and allowing an individual to see.
