Sutureless Conjunctiva-Sparing Posterior Ptosis Repair
Functional Benefits
Dr. Ronald Mancini helped develop a sutureless version of conjunctiva-sparing posterior ptosis repair, further advancing the original surgical technique he pioneered.
This innovative approach corrects drooping eyelids (ptosis) without requiring sutures, potentially reducing surgical trauma and improving recovery time.
By preserving delicate eyelid tissues and minimizing manipulation, the procedure helps restore normal eyelid position while maintaining natural eyelid function.
The technique was published in:
Mancini R, Forouzan P, Keenum ZG, Tenzel PA, Petroll WM. (2023) Sutureless Conjunctiva-Sparing Posterior Ptosis Repair.
Who Should Consider Ptosis Repair?
Patients experiencing drooping upper eyelids, visual obstruction, eyelid fatigue, or asymmetry may benefit from advanced ptosis repair techniques developed by experienced oculoplastic surgeons.
