Upneeq is the only FDA-approved prescription eyedrop for acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) that lifts your upper eyelids to open your eyes! If your eyes look “tired” or “sleepy,” you may have a condition called acquired blepharoptosis (also known as acquired ptosis or low-lying lids). Book an appointment to get started on this cutting edge treatment.

Acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) is a common medical condition that:

• Can develop later in life
• Affects adults of all ages, but occurs more often with increased age
• Usually occurs when the muscles in the eyelid stretch and weaken, causing the upper eyelid to droop
• May be caused by other issues, such as cataract surgery, contact lens wear, or an underlying medical condition. It could also be a sign of a more serious medical condition.

Acquired ptosis can lead to vision impairment

Low-lying eyelid(s) can affect eyesight by not only blocking your vision, but also by reducing field of vision, which may interfere with day-to-day functions such as:

• Reading
• Driving
• Computer use
• Looking up without the need to tilt your head back
