Ptosis (or lazy eye) is a drooping of the upper or lower eyelid, which happens when the muscles of the eyelid are not strong enough to work the eyelid properly. Aging can cause these muscles to deteriorate, but some people are born with the condition. Other factors like trauma and inflammation can cause ptosis as can a condition like Horner syndrome, an interruption of the facial nerve that leads to the brain.
