Study of a treatment for droopy eyelid in Chinese patients
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new treatment for Chinese patients whose droopy upper eyelid (acquired blepharoptosis) seriously affects their vision. It may help if your eyelid droops low enough to block part of your sight and you haven't had previous corrective surgery or certain eye conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have at least one eye with a droopy upper eyelid that is making it harder to see (confirmed by a special vision test, with the same result twice in one day).
- In that eye, the lid edge is very close to your eye's center (2 mm or less from the pupil).
- Your eyesight in that eye is at least 20/80 (can see the big letter on an eye chart).
- You have not had prior surgery for a droopy eyelid (except simple eyelid skin removal more than 3 months ago).
- You are not using certain eye drops or treatments (like Botox, allergy drops, or glaucoma drops) that could affect the eye or the droop.

This study tests a special device that uses feedback to temporarily manage blepharoptosis, which means a droopy upper eyelid. It may help improve eyelid position without permanent surgery, but you must be able to follow the study steps.
This study tests a new eye drop (oxymetazoline) to see if it can help lift droopy eyelids in adults. To join, you must have a certain amount of eyelid droop and some vision loss in your upper field of view, and you should feel that the droop bothers you enough to want treatment.
This trial compares two surgical methods (anterior vs posterior approach) for fixing a droopy upper eyelid (ptosis) that is caused by a stretched tendon. It will help determine which technique leads to better outcomes.
This study uses high-speed video to measure how the upper eyelid moves in children with droopy eyelids (ptosis). It may help doctors better understand eyelid function and improve treatment options.
This study compares two eyedrop treatments—Upneeq and Lumify—to see which works better for acquired droopy eyelid (ptosis). It may help you if you have a droopy eyelid that makes it harder to see or affects your appearance.
This study uses a computer method to measure your eyelid shape and how your eyelid moves over time. It may help doctors better assess eyelid problems such as drooping or spasms using images or video.
