They could use the oil essential to adopt on the eyes surrounding parts to make the eyes get intense at the skin. They should not stay up late at night which will make the ptosis get serious.

  There is a way checking if you have ptosis, that is relaxing your forehead and stretching the brow firstly. Then, measuring the upper eyelid position when your eyeballs extremely down at somewhere and the upper eyelid position on the extreme to gaze at something. Please remember digital differential and compare it with normal persons'. As far as i know, the difference of normal person is above 8 millimeters, but if yours is about 4 millimeters, you may have got ptosis.
