It works by tightening or repositioning the eyelid\u2019s main lifting structure, the levator muscle tendon (levator aponeurosis). It is commonly performed by ophthalmologists (often oculoplastic surgeons) in functional and cosmetic eyelid surgery settings. It may be done alone or combined with other eyelid procedures when appropriate."}
