[Results of the treatment of congenital ptosis in children using the Friedenwald-Guyton method].
Results of 28 surgeries for congenital ptosis after Friedenwald-Guyton's method modified by V.L. Mikheyev are analyzed. A thick woven dacron thread was used for suturing. Good results were attained in 24 cases: the pupil area was covered with the upper lid by not more than 1/5. No effect was attained in 4 cases. Cases of ineffective surgeries are analyzed. A conclusion is made that the aforesaid surgery is simple, low traumatic, and sufficiently effective. Dacron thread may be effectively used for suturing.
