Drooping eyelids occur when the upper eyelid begins to sag over the eye. This can be caused by stretched muscles, loose skin, or fat redistribution over time. In some cases, the heaviness may impair your field of vision. While often related to aging, drooping lids can also be hereditary. Treatment focuses on removing excess skin or lifting the brow and upper eyelid for a more open, rested look.
