A surgical method is proposed to treat patients with combined severe blepharoptosis and peripheral facial nerve paresis. The operation involves construction of a sling from the contralateral active frontalis muscle to the affected eyelid tarsal plate. The method has been applied in one patient, with satisfactory results. Re-education of the patient was relatively easy to achieve.
