Ptosis: can be congenital and can affect the development of vision. It is important to have your doctor examine your baby to determine if there is a neurologic or structural *(i.e.something blocking the eyelid) cause and then go on to an ophthalmologist to be sure the eyelid opens enough to allow normal vision.
