Does levator palpebrae muscle shorten operation ache

summary

Recently, the corner of the eye is very uncomfortable. I feel that the muscles nearby are drooping. I'm worried about what's wrong with my eyes. I went to the hospital immediately. The doctor said that it was caused by aponeurosis ptosis the day after tomorrow, and suggested that I do levator muscle shortening. Now let's talk about the pain of levator palpebrae shortening surgery.

Does levator palpebrae muscle shorten operation ache

First: levator palpebrae superioris muscle shortening surgery has been improved by countless surgeons. There are many changes in the current surgical methods, which can be roughly divided into conjunctival incision (internal incision method) and skin incision (external incision method) or conjunctival and skin joint incision method.

Second, the levator palpebrae superioris muscle shortening keeps the original walking and moving direction of the muscle, which is more in line with the physiological requirements of the eyes, and the postoperative effect is also ideal. However, it is limited to the light and moderate ptosis with partial function of levator palpebrae superioris muscle. If the function of levator palpebrae superioris muscle is poor, shortening the levator palpebrae superioris muscle or moving the muscle stop edge forward, the operation effect may not be ideal. If the function of levator palpebrae superioris muscle is completely missing, it is more difficult to work. If a large number of muscle shortening is forced, it will lead to serious complications such as severe eyelid insufficiency, diplopia and so on.

Third: levator palpebrae superioris muscle shortening is suitable for bilateral or unilateral mild or moderate congenital blepharoptosis, and the levator palpebrae superioris muscle still has partial function (the muscle strength of levator palpebrae superioris above 5mm or 5mm). It can also be used for aponeurosis ptosis.

matters needing attention

If there is no other problem in the body and the function of the palpebral muscle is better, you can try it. The success rate of the operation is still very high. At that time, if the eyelid muscle function is poor, it is recommended not to easily try this operation, in order to avoid the failure of the operation, resulting in more serious consequences.
