Abstract:
PURPOSE:To assess whether sequential or simultaneous ptosis repair yields a better postoperative outcome in patients with documented preoperative Hering's dependency. DESIGN:Retrospective, case-control study. PARTICIPANTS AND CONTROLS:Of the 216 patients who underwent bilateral ptosis surgery, 109 patients with documented Hering's dependency constituted the study group and the 107 patients with no Hering's dependency constituted the control group. METHODS:The charts of patients who underwent levator advancement ptosis surgery between April 2002 and December 2004 by the same surgeon (R.C.K.) were reviewed retrospectively. Data regarding patient demographics, preoperative and postoperative margin-reflex distance values, levator function, presence of Hering's dependency, side of the initial operation, and reoperation status were collected from the charts. Patients demonstrating preoperative Hering's dependency of eyelid position operated simultaneously and sequentially were compared for postoperative symmetry and reoperation rates. Postoperative asymmetry was defined as a more than 1-mm difference between upper eyelid heights. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Postoperative asymmetry and reoperation rates. RESULTS:In the Hering's dependency group (n = 109), 64 sequential surgeries that yielded 15 asymmetric results (23.4%) and 7 reoperations (10.9%) compared with the 45 simultaneous operations, which revealed 1 case of asymmetry (2.2%; P = 0.002) and 1 case of reoperation (2.2%; P = 0.137). Compared with the control group, sequentially operated Hering's dependency patients still showed higher postoperative asymmetry (P = 0.011), and the reoperation rate was similar (P = 0.134). Hering's dependency patients who had the initial operation on the left side demonstrated a significantly higher rate of postoperative asymmetry (42.3% vs. 10.5%; P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS:Bilateral ptosis cases with documented Hering's dependency yield better results when both eyes are operated in the same session, rather than delaying surgery for the second eyelid. Ocular dominance probably has a significant impact on Hering's dependency and postoperative outcome after unilateral operations.
