Diagnostic tests for Droopy eye-lid:
Various tests are used in the diagnosis of Droopy eye-lid. Some of these are listed below :
- Physical examination
- Look for abnormalities on eye examination that may cause a mechanical cause of the droopy eyelid - e.g. swelling of the conjunctiva, conjunctivitis, swelling of the eyelid.
- Perform nervous system examination and determine if pupil is dilated or constricted
- If pupil is dilated and there are abnormalities found with cranial nerve, examination must consider cerebral aneurysm (especially if unilateral ptosis), cavernous sinus thrombosis, tuberculous meningitis, syphilitic meningitis, Wernicke's encephalopathy, diphtheria or subdural haematoma. If pupil is dilated and there are abnormalities found with the cranial nerves and peripheral nerves must consider myotonic dystrophy, tabes dorsalis (form of neurosyphilis), brain stem tumors, vertebrobasilar infarction or insufficiency, multiple sclerosis, epidemic encephalitis or syringomyelia. If pupil is constricted and have a unilateral complete droopy eyelid this would suggest diabetic neuropathy. If pupil is constricted and have bilateral complete droopy eyelid would suggest myasthenia gravis
