Objective To determine the clinical effects of our modified three muscular frontal flap suspension surgery in the treatment of severe blepharoptosis in order to gain the function of upper eyelids and visual function
and cosmetic objective at the same time. Methods We modified the conventional surgery by cutting muscular frontal flap into 3 parts
and then suspending tarsal plate with the 3 parts in a fan shape. A total of 47 eyes of severe blepharoptosis (a muscular frontal flap of 1.5 cm
36 patients) received our modified three muscular frontal flap suspension surgery. Results Of 47eyes
46 eyes were cured after operation
occupy 97.87%. In the follow-up survey of 6 months
eyelids had restored to normal positions without any complication. Conclusion Modified three muscular frontal flap suspension operation is an ideal operation for severe blepharoptosis.
