I present a simplified aponeurotic ptosis repair that minimizes surgical dissection and enhances the predictability of postoperative eyelid positions. Indications for the procedure are unilateral ptosis, bilateral ptosis where preaponeurotic fat excision is not indicated, mild congenital ptosis, and reoperations from standard levator surgery. The procedure is best suited for surgeons who have a thorough knowledge of the levator aponeurosis anatomy.
