  • Research summary

    Despite the existence of published tables indicating the amount of levator surgery which should be performed under general anaesthetic in children with congenital ptosis, many oculoplastic surgeons remain unsure of how much levator surgery to perform.
    It is unclear which tables provide the most accurate outcomes. Thus we propose to collect all the relevant measurements already recorded pre, intra and post operatively by occuloplastic surgeons, which are recommended in these tables. We can therefore report the accuracy of these tables.
