หนังตาตก หนังตาหย่อน ผ่าตัดเปลือกตารักษาได้ดี และวิธีเตรียมตัวที่ถูกต้อง

A type of eye disease that many people overlook is diseases affecting the eyelids, such as drooping eyelids, sagging eyelids, inward-turned eyelids, and outward-turned eyelids. These conditions can partially obstruct vision and may cause chronic eye health problems in the future. Eyelid surgery can restore the eyelids to normal, not affecting vision, and also improve appearance.
