How is blepharoptosis caused?

It occurs after birth, mostly bilaterally, often with genetic factors. If it is the ptosis caused by the deformity of levator palpebrae superioris muscle, it is usually manifested as simple ptosis. If it is caused by neuronuclear hypoplasia, it is often combined with other eye abnormalities, such as epicanthus, small eyelid fissure, strabismus and so on.

It is caused by the damage of oculomotor nerve or nerve nucleus. It is usually unilateral, often accompanied by eye movement disorder and sometimes diplopia. Sympathetic blepharoptosis is a part of sympathetic paralysis, which is more common in patients with neck surgery, trauma and thyroid. The symptoms included slight ptosis of the upper eyelid, slightly higher position of the lower eyelid, small blepharoplasty, retrobulbar retraction and pupil narrowing, which constituted Horner's syndrome.

Myogenic blepharoptosis: it is common in myasthenia gravis and progressive extraocular muscle paralysis. The degree of blepharoptosis caused by myasthenia gravis is aggravated with fatigue, which is mild in the morning and aggravated in the evening. After injection of neostigmine, the symptoms are obviously improved.
