About this model
Ptosis as defined by Wikipedia is: "Ptosis /ˈtoʊsɪs/ is a drooping or falling of the upper eyelid. The drooping may be worse after being awake longer when the individual's muscles are tired. This condition is sometimes called "lazy eye," but that term normally refers to the condition amblyopia." These crutches attach to the persons glasses and lifts the lids up, so that surgery is not required, or in cases where surgery will not help these will help their quality of life. I have seen several papers online of people claiming to release similar designs to the public, but haven't found any printable STLS in any paper or website. This is my variation on some different models. There are 2 models, the 55 deg one has a tighter grip, in the case of a narrower frame, altho this has not been tested.…
