Very sweet 89 years young patient has had several blepharoplasty surgeries over the years. The last one didn't hold for long. She can no longer safely be put under anesthesia. 1 year ago I applied a Ptosis Crutch to her current frame, but it turns out it's too heavy to stay up without extreme discomfort (due to how tight of adjustment was needed.)
I've never seen or heard of one, but thinking outside the box, I decided to apply a crutch to a Silhouette rimless, right into the lenses (Trivex). I took these pics this morning prior to pick up by the patient. Success! They are working great and she says they are so much more comfortable than her old pair. I tried to get her to let me take her picture to share, but she doesn't want to be an "internet model". Lord love her....
