Droopy tired eye.

I am a 69 year old male.I recently have had a droopy eyelid. I have trouble focusing and my eye gets tired easily.
I am on various medications.It seemed to go from my right eye to my left eye.A warm cloth seems to help.Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?There is no pain or swelling.I have an appt. with an eye doctor this week and also my GP.
Thanks in advance.

There are many causes including your medications.  Myasthenia gravis is also a possibility.
