Müller's muscle-conjunctival resection for blepharoptosis with poor levator function.

Abstract
We describe a patient with blepharoptosis, poor levator function, and a positive phenylephrine test who responded favorably to Müller's muscle-conjunctival resection, alleviating the need for a frontalis suspension ptosis repair in the presence of very deep superior sulci.
