About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Eyelid Droop

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adults age 18 and above able to provide informed consent to participate
  • Subject with stable ocular health, defined as no ocular conditions requiring ongoing topical therapy or recent surgical intervention

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prisoners
  • Pregnant women.
  • Known contradictions or sensitivities to study medication (brimonidine)
  • Ocular surgery within the past 3 months or refractive surgery within the past six months
  • Grossly abnormal lid margins, anatomical abnormalities, previous eyelid or orbital surgery
  • Variable ptosis or eyelid position (e.g., myasthenia gravis, thyroid eye disease, or blepharospasm)
  • Significant pre-existing ptosis of any cause (defined as margin reflex distance 1 < 1mm)
  • Any ocular or systemic condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would confound study data, interfere with the subject's study participation, or affected the subject's safety or trial parameters
  • Presence of an active ocular infection
  • Prior (within 5 days of beginning study treatment) use of eye whiteners (eg, vasoconstrictors), decongestants, antihistamines (including over the counter and herbal topical ophthalmic medications), phenylephrine dilating drops, any other topical ophthalmic agents
