My brother says i should get treated because once in a while i get drooping eyelid? is he right?

Depends: There are many reasons for droop of the lid. First is this recent or a slow evolution of long standing? Your ophthalmologist can help discover why it droops. Treatment is only necessary if it is persistent and a health or cosmetic problem. If you are not bothered by it and have no other symptoms, then you can ignore your brother.

Yes: Variable drooping of an eyelid may be caused by myasthenia gravis. It may also be congenital and vary with time of the day, tiredness. You should have it checked.
