Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Success of levator resection in relation to structure of Whitnall ligament

    Relating the structure of the ligament with the degree of severity of ptosis by studying its position, shape and tightness in all cases during surgery

    An average of 1 year

Study Arms (3)

Mild congenital ptosis

children with mild congenital ptosis

Procedure: Levator resection

Moderate congenital ptosis

children with moderate congenital ptosis

Procedure: Levator resection

Severe congenital ptosis

children with severe congenital ptosis

Procedure: Levator resection

Interventions

Eyelid crease incision Dissection of the levator aponeurosis to the level of Whitnall ligament. Assessment of the structure of Whitnal ligament. Resection of a calculated part of the aponsurosis. re-attachment of the aponeurosis to the tarsus Incision closure with crease formation
