Correction of Congenital Ptosis using Silicone Material For Frontalis suspension.
Pak J Ophthalmol Nov ;11(4):115-7.
In seven cases of congenital ptosis, frontalis suspension was done using silicone band which is routinely used for encirclement in retinal attachment surgery. No recurrence of ptosis was noted after 1-2 years of followup. Infection at the surgical site occurred in one case and was controlled with systemic antibiotics. The material proved to be inexpensive and effective.
