Do you struggle with drooping eyelids that give you a tired, sleepy appearance? If you answered yes, you may suffer from what is known as ptosis. Ptosis is a condition that occurs when the upper eyelids sag downward and cover part of the eyes. In previous years, the only solution to eyelid ptosis was a surgical procedure. Today, with the help of Upneeq, you can achieve open, alert eyes without the need for invasive surgery.
Upneeq is a once-daily, prescription eye drop formulated especially for low-lying lids. In fact, it’s the only FDA-approved eye drop specifically designed for ptosis.
The active ingredient in Upneeq is a 0.1% oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution. It belongs to the class of drugs known as alpha agonists, which trigger muscle contraction and vasoconstriction. The Muller’s muscle is responsible for keeping the eyelid in an elevated position. In helping the Muller’s muscle contract, Upneeq can elevate your eyelids, restore your complete field of vision, and give your eyes a refreshed appearance.
