A member asked:
My left eyelid hangs lower than the right. and my left pupil is sometimes smaller than the right one. what could be the cause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ptosis / anisicoria: If this is new or progressive you should see your doc to have this evaluated. Problems with the nerves to your eye and associated muscles can cause this.
