Ptosis... No Massage? Posted: 05-11-06 04:08am


Hihi... New in here... Btw... I'm male, abt 20 yrs of age and suffer from ptosis... My eyes get tired frequently and I thought of doing some eye massages... However, when I told a eye doctor abt this, he strongly advised me not to do any forms of eye massaging because it will worsen the ptosis... His logic is alike the stretching of a rubber band. The musles of my eyelids will b stretched, become more loose and hence my eyelid will drop further... Is this really the case? Cause i'm still considering doing some forms of massaging that will better relax my eyes... Thank you very much for reading... :)
