| Popis: |
In this concise review, some essential characteristics of a relatively rare ocular disorder, floppy eyelid syndrome, are described. A special emphasis is made on the close relationships between this eye disease, on the one hand, and obstructive sleep apnea designed as a common and socially significant pathology of modern society, on the other hand. Along with conservative drug treatment, a variety of effective surgical techniques for the treatment of floppy eyelid syndrome are presented. A closer collaboration between ophthalmologists and sleep medicine specialists are needed to solve the problems of obstructive sleep apnea-related floppy eyelid syndrome. |
