Eyelid Surgery for Upper Visual Field Improvement

The workgroup recommends that for patients presenting with low upper eyelid position, clinicians obtain a clinical history, which should include an assessment of impact on visual field or activities of daily living; and perform a physical examination to assess upper eyelid position (ptosis) relative to the pupil (such as MRD-1) with photographic documentation and assessment of levator function.
