Palsy

Procedures

Restoring eye closure and facial symmetry when the nerve controlling the facial muscles stops working.

What it  is

Close view of the eye area affected by facial palsy

Facial palsy is paralysis affecting part of the face, caused by dysfunction of the nerve that controls the facial muscles, particularly around the eyes and mouth.

It can cause significant eye-related complications when the eyelid cannot close fully, leaving the cornea exposed and dry. Without appropriate care, this may lead to corneal damage, scarring and potential vision loss.

Who it affects

Anyone experiencing incomplete eye closure or asymmetry of the face due to nerve paralysis may benefit from treatment. The condition can affect the forehead, brow, midface, lower face and the corners of the mouth.
