Dear doctor; My left eyelid feels heavy and droops over my eye. This has become worse since Ive become pregnant and people are starting to notice. Is there anything I can do about it? Maryan. Dear Maryan, The first thing you should do is find out whats causing it. I dont know if this is something youve had all your life. If it is, its probably permanent and only more noticeable now because of your pregnancy. If this is the case, it should probably improve again after you have your baby. It’s unlikely there will be any solution that involves taking medication, but there could be some local surgery which would improve it. But its unlikely that anyone would do this until after your pregnancy. First find out what the cause is.
