Conclusion

Upper eyelid ptosis in the anophthalmic socket typically has multiple etiologies and the evaluation and management can be complex. While true, isolated ptosis may occur, upper eyelid dystopia due to poor support from the prosthesis, decreased orbital volume from an undersized implant, orbital soft tissue rotation, abnormal implant location, and lower eyelid malposition are usually present in various degrees. A systematic approach taking into account orbital, periocular, and prosthetic dynamics should be used in the evaluation and treatment of the anophthalmic patient presenting with apparent ptosis.
