I have a droopy eyelid (eyelid ptosis) as a result of nerve injury during my modified neck dissection. It is part of what is called Horner's Syndrome, and the most dramatic symptom is the droopy eyelid.

I have discovered a temporary solution for it....but I am considering surgery for a more permanent "fix." It is very, very bothersome.

I would love to hear from anyone else who has experienced this. Thanks.
