If you feel that it affects the appearance, you can consider surgery, which does not indicate any disease. If it is ptosis, it is related to the dysfunction of oculomotor nerve or levator palpebrae. The ptosis, if there is morning curtain weight, may be myasthenia gravis, which requires nervous system examination, such as neostigmine test, to make a clear diagnosis and further treatment. The common cause of unilateral or bilateral ptosis may also be caused by diabetes. Neuromuscular complications caused by abnormal peripheral nerve or thyroid function should be determined by relevant endocrine examination.
