In this episode, Optic Surgeon provides a comprehensive guide to ptosis (eyelid drooping) for ophthalmology residents and final-year MBBS students. Using a real-world case, we explore eyelid anatomy, a four-bucket framework (Neurogenic, Myogenic, Mechanical, Pseudoptosis) for differential diagnosis, and a systematic approach to workup and management. A vital board exam pearl highlights acute, painful ptosis with pupil involvement as a neurosurgical emergency. Perfect for mastering this critical clinical sign. #Ophthalmology #MedicalEducation
