The Only FDA-Approved Eye Drop for Low-Lying Lids (Acquired Ptosis)

If you’ve noticed your eyelids starting to droop or your eyes appearing more tired or sleepy than usual, you may be experiencing a condition known as acquired ptosis. Also referred to as low-lying lids or acquired blepharoptosis, this common condition occurs when the muscles responsible for lifting the eyelid begin to weaken with age or external factors.

Upneeq® is the first and only FDA-approved prescription eye drop designed to treat acquired ptosis by lifting the upper eyelid without surgery. In just minutes, it can help open the eyes for a more refreshed, awake appearance — and in many cases, improve vision by clearing the line of sight.


What Is Acquired Ptosis?

Understanding Low-Lying Eyelids

Acquired ptosis can develop over time, often due to aging, contact lens wear, eye surgeries, or repetitive eye rubbing. The result is a weakened levator muscle — the one responsible for lifting your upper eyelid. This can cause:

  • A tired, sleepy, or uneven appearance

  • Reduced field of vision

  • Eye strain or difficulty keeping the eyes open

  • Impact on self-confidence or facial symmetry

While ptosis can be subtle, even a slight droop can significantly affect how you look — and how well you see.


How Upneeq Works

Fast-Acting, Non-Invasive Eyelid Lift

Upneeq (oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution 0.1%) works by stimulating Müller’s muscle, a tiny muscle in the eyelid that helps keep it elevated. With just one drop per eye, most patients notice a lift within 5 to 15 minutes, with results lasting up to 8 hours.

Clinical studies have shown:

  • 84% of patients saw a visible lift in the upper eyelid

  • Up to 1 mm of lift in the upper eyelid for many users

  • Significant improvement in superior visual field in patients with visual impairment

Whether you’re looking for a nonsurgical treatment option for droopy lids or want to refresh your eyes before a big event, Upneeq delivers noticeable results — fast.


Why Patients Love Upneeq

A Daily Drop That Makes a Big Difference

Upneeq is ideal for patients who:

  • Want to correct mild to moderate acquired ptosis without surgery

  • Are not yet candidates (or not interested) in blepharoplasty

  • Want a refreshed appearance for events, meetings, or photos

  • Experience eyelid heaviness that impacts their daily life or vision

It’s easy to use, well tolerated, and doesn’t require a long-term commitment. Many patients use it as part of their morning routine, while others reach for it on days they want a lift — literally.
