Upneeq®  [oxymetazoline hydrochloride opthalmic solution 0.1%] is the only FDA-approved prescription eyedrop for acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) that lifts your upper eyelids to open your eyes

Millions of people over 40 may have acquired ptosis, but only 15% have been diagnosed, and even fewer have received any treatment*

*Estimate of prevalence was calculated using both U.S. Census data and a published study by Sridharan et al. (1995). The Sridharan study observed a prevalence rate of 11.5% (n=400), which was then applied to the US Census’ projected 2020 population of Americans aged 50+ years.

Acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) is a common medical condition that:

• Can develop later in life
• Affects adults of all ages, but occurs more often with increased age
• Usually occurs when the muscles in the eyelid stretch and weaken, causing the upper eyelid to droop
• May be caused by other issues, such as cataract surgery, contact lens wear, or an underlying medical condition. It could also be a sign of a more serious medical condition.

Acquired ptosis can lead to vision impairment

• Low-lying eyelid(s) can affect eyesight by not only blocking your vision, but also by reducing field of vision, which may interfere with day-to-day functions such as:
  • Reading
  • Driving
  • Computer use
  • Looking up without the need to tilt your head back
