A simplified technique for tucking the levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis and muscle in the correction of blepharoptosis is described. The anterior (skin) approach is used and no special instruments are required. The advantages of this procedure are discussed, including preservation of the normal anatomy as much as possible, minimum dissection and minimum edema. A preliminary number of cases are reported. It is believed that this technique is useful in cases of acquired blepharoptosis and in congenital blepharoptosis with good levator function.
