Patients should have been evaluated and deemed appropriate for such surgical intervention. The procedure should be considered for patients with unilateral or bilateral upper eyelid ptosis of up to 2 mm with levator function greater than 11 mm. Phenylephrine testing may be conducted to further identify surgical candidates. Patients should have been educated about the risks and benefits of the procedure, including alternatives.
