Abstract

The posterior white line advancement technique and the levatorpexy for congenital ptosis derived from it are two approaches of posterior ptosis repair. They are useful for mild to severe involutional ptosis and for congenital ptosis, respectively. The white line advancement can be performed on thinned tarsus and has consistently predictable results when modifying the technique according to preoperative measurements.
