Abstract A practical approach to the patient with ptosis is important for eye residents and ophthalmologists who do not specialize in oculoplastic surgery.

"... a workable solution for the ophthalmologist confronted with a patient with ptosis." Dr Dutton provides a workable solution for the ophthalmologist confronted with a patient with ptosis. Concisely written and lavishly illustrated in color, this atlas takes the reader through a logical, stepwise approach, culminating in appropriately detailed descriptions of the commonly applied surgical options. Chapter 1 discusses cause and classification. Chapter 2 approaches eyelid anatomy with a series of superb drawings and appropriate descriptive text.
