titleOfInvention |
Applying liquid adhesive to upper eyelid to counteract drooping |
abstract |
Drooping of an upper eyelid is counteracted by applying a liquid adhesive composition that does not harm the eye along an elongated area where a healthy eyelid would normally fold. Blinking the eye or applying a flexible member to the eyelid along the elongated area of application or applying the adhesive composition to the flexible member and applying the treated member to the outer surface of the droopable eyelid causes the eyelid to fold and the eyelid portions to adhere, thus causing the eyelid to assume an undrooped condition. This invention replaces the need for a surgical procedure to sew the upper eyelid portions together or for a special applicator requiring special training to remove a preformed two-sided tape from a plastic support sheet and apply the removed tape to the outer surface of an unfolded upper eyelid. Instead, this invention provides a simple application procedure that can be performed readily by an untrained individual and apparatus for performing said procedure. |
