Ptosis, eye correction
Focuses on functional improvement rather than appearance [Article]
Park Il, Director of Yonsei First Plastic Surgery Clinic
If you cannot open your eyes clearly and they remain half-closed and drowsy-looking, that is called ptosis! If you have often been told that you always look tired or sleepy, you may want to suspect ptosis.
Ptosis, which occurs due to weakened eyelid-opening strength, can be improved through a method called eye correction (ptosis surgery).
These days, you may hear people say that eye correction is absolutely necessary and that it is always recommended, but it is important to note that it is not necessarily required in every case.
So today, I would like to introduce an article related to eye correction (ptosis) by Director Park Il of Yonsei First Plastic Surgery Clinic :D

Ptosis can be caused by congenital factors, but it can also develop due to acquired factors such as aging.
Because each person’s eye condition, muscle strength, skin elasticity, and so on are different, it would be wise to get examined by a board-certified plastic surgeon before undergoing eye correction.
After checking with a self-diagnosis method for ptosis, let’s try improving function as well!
