Correlation between body composition and blepharoptosis in adults.

Published in: Eye (London, England) (2020)

Awareness of the potential correlation between obesity-associated fat deposition and blepharoptosis could improve management of the condition and contribute to understanding the pathogenesis of blepharoptosis.
