He stated that the drooping eyelid appeared to be less severe upon waking in the morning, but was persistent throughout the day. His ocular history was significant for macular drusen. He was also a primary open angle glaucoma suspect. He reported that his father had a positive family history of myasthenia gravis. He denied any eye pain, injection, itching, discharge, diplopia, vision changes, eye trauma, or headache.
