Silicon Implants
Wednesday, July 28th, 1999I’m getting silicon implants.
I have what is known as congenital ptosis in my left eyelid. Basically Ptosis is a drooping of the upper eyelid.
When I was four I had surgery which fixed a significant ammount of problems that I did have with my eyelids. Around last year I felt that it was time to have more work done on my eye.
I met with the very doctor who worked on my eyes 15 years ago and we scheduled surgery. The processis basically adding a silicon sling within my eye that will keep my eye open like normal.
The surgery will take place next Tuesday (3 Aug).
