Blepharoptosis patients use frontalis muscle unconsciously to widen eye, and it results in several aesthetic problems-such as forehead wrinkling and elevated eyebrow. So forehead wrinkling and elevated eyebrow can be resolved with correction of blepharoptosis. We evaluated the change of eyebrow height in 30 patients who were corrected blepharoptosis through photogrammetry. The mean age of the patients was 36.8 years old and the mean follow up periods were 6 months. Horizontal line passing medial and lateral canthal corner in both eyes was drawn in Photopshop. From the horizontal line, 3 vertical lines perpendicular to this line were drawn passing medial and lateral canthal corner and the vertically oriented center of the pupil. Eyebrow height was measured through these 3 vertical lines. The average length of decreased value of the eyebrow height were 3.64 mm in H1, 3.31 mm in H2, 2.79 mm in H3. In unilateral cases, 2.42 mm in H1, 2.86 mm in H2, 2.78 mm in H3, and in bilateral cases, the decreased values were 4.25 mm in H1, 3.53 mm in H2, 2.79 mm in H3. From this study, the author would like to introduce the method to calculate the changes of eyebrow height after blepharoptosis correction and the values objectively.
