Müller’S Muscle

Muller’s muscle resection is a straightforward and effective surgical treatment for acquired blepharoptosis. The authors describe a novel modification of this procedure that reduces risk of corneal complications using dissolvable suture and tenotomy scissors in place of scalpel excision. In all, 122 consecutive adult patients with mild to moderate acquired eyelid ptosis treated with this modified technique were identified through chart review. In this cohort, all patients were satisfied with the result, none required reoperation, and none sustained postoperative complications. This technique modification maintains procedural efficacy and efficiency while improving patient comfort and decreasing the risk of inadvertently cutting a suture and inducing a corneal abrasion or incision dehiscence.
