ptosis

Just a note to any friends or family who use contact lenses. There was a disturbing article in the Nikkei Shinbun the other day about a woman who had droopy eyelids that just wouldn't stay open. It was discovered that they were caused by pulling up her eyelid every day to insert her contact lenses. Eventually, the muscles that held her eyelids just wouldn't open past half-way. She was a bank teller, fecing customers all day, so I guess it had some effect on her work, with the customers loosing focus and unable to concentrate on the transaction because they are distracted by her eyes and all...

As you can see, I am really struggling to find something to write here.
