Right Eye Does Not Rise, Covered by Droopy Right Eyelid (Ptosis) – Third Nerve Palsy?

Posted By Patient Letter to the Editor On February 15, 2009 @ 4:11 pm In Patient Questions | Comments Disabled

I am a 32-year old Asian male. My right eye does not rise at all if my left eye is open, and only rises to the midline if I cover my left eye. The right eyelid droops (ptosis) to cover the eye when not raised and I am using my left eye. Previous examinations have indicated a third nerve palsy. If anyone has any further insight, would be delighted to hear it.
