(Baonghean.vn) - Congenital ptosis is a common disease, affecting aesthetics and related functions. Recently, the Department of Plastic Surgery, Nghe An Orthopedic Trauma Hospital successfully treated a 14-year-old boy with this disease; helping him regain confidence in life.

Trouble and inferiority complex due to congenital ptosis

HVT (14 years old in Yen Thanh) is the youngest child in a farming family of 5 siblings. Since birth, he has encountered many difficulties in daily life as well as in studying. His drooping eyelids limit his vision, so he often has to tilt his head up to see and communicate with people. Due to his family's financial difficulties and his young age, he has not had the opportunity to undergo surgery early.

She shared that at school, she was often teased and criticized by her friends, which made her feel self-conscious and sad. So after a period of research, her family decided to choose the Department of Plastic Surgery, Nghe An Orthopedic Trauma Hospital as the place to help her cure this disease.

Happy with new look after surgery

After examining T's case, Dr. Chu Van Hieu - Deputy Head of the Department of Plastic Surgery, Nghe An Orthopedic Trauma Hospital said: "T's case is a fairly severe case of ptosis. If this disease is not treated promptly, it can cause unpredictable consequences such as: amblyopia, refractive errors due to pressure of the eyelid on the eyeball, limited visual field, spinal curvature due to trying to tilt the neck to see, at the same time affecting aesthetics, causing psychological barriers, limiting communication of young children".

During 120 minutes, Dr. Chu Van Hieu and his team of doctors in the Department performed eyelid surgery, removed excess fat from the eyelids, and adjusted the levator muscle and the muscle bundles in the eyelids to strengthen them. This is the optimal method to solve all problems of congenital ptosis, while also helping to restore aesthetic eyes.

The results that T received were beyond her expectations. Now her eyes have returned to normal, natural appearance. She can confidently look at the world without having to look up with difficulty like before and is happy with her new appearance, like any other normal person.
