Tags: ptosis, pupils

A recent trip to the optomatrist revealed mild left eye ptosis, dilated and sluggish left pupil. No symptoms. Thoughts?

Yes, go to see an eye MD physician ophthalmologist not an otometrist who is not an Eye MD and can't treat any of those problems. Find one near you at www.aao.org
