Contact Lens Induce Blepharoptosis Through Fibrosis of Müller’s Muscle

In this study, the authors analyzed the upper eyelids of long-term contact lens wearing and normal people, and found that Müller's muscle fibrosis in the upper eyelids of long-term contact lens wearing patients was more obvious. The authors initially believed that long-term contact lens wearing may cause acquired ptosis by causing Müller's muscle fibrosis.
