چکیده
Introduction: An abnormally drooping upper eyelid in comparison with the normal position primary gaze refers to ptosis. Levator resection should be procedure of choice patients moderate severe ptosis and a good levator function. Methods: In this retrospective study, we analysed surgical outcomes after large maximal function Bell’s phenomenon. All had function; therefore, was choice. We performed 20 mm above desired post-operative correction achieved. Results: One patient microcornea, hence, he undercorrected his marginal reflex distance 1 (MRD 1) 3 mm. Two who pre-operatively MRD Rest 4 Conclusion: or more congenital simple Bell's phenomenon achieve favourable outcome.
