Early treatment is important because of the risk of amblyopia. Surgery is the primary treatment option for strabismus and blepharoptosis. [ingentaconnect.com]

Treatment Treatment Options: Normal ocular movements cannot be restored but large recessions of the inferior recti followed by frontalis suspension of the upper eyelids can improve severe ptosis and the compensatory chin-up gaze. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

The visual prognosis depends on the treatment of amblyopia. A timely referral to ophthalmology is necessary to begin treatment. If the lid occludes the pupil, the referral is urgent to prevent dense vision loss. [clinicaladvisor.com]
