If ptosis affects how you see the world, ARTView Ptosis Crutch Glasses offer a non-surgical option — gently assisting your eyelid so you can see clearly and confidently every day.
Ptosis (pronounced "TOE-sis") is the drooping of one or both upper eyelids. It can partially obstruct vision, cause eye strain, or lead to tilting your head back just to see clearly. It affects people of all ages — from children born with the condition to older adults where it develops gradually over time.
Many people living with ptosis explore non-surgical options first. ARTView Ptosis Crutch Glasses feature a small adjustable support arm fitted to the inside of the frame — this arm gently assists the upper eyelid to stay open, giving you a clearer field of vision while you wear the glasses.
"I used to tilt my head back just to see clearly. These glasses made a real difference to my day."
The ARTView range includes 47+ frame styles for adults and children — available with or without prescription lenses, and shipped worldwide.
Simple, effective and completely non-surgical.
A small support arm sits on the inside of the spectacle frame, positioned to rest beneath the upper eyelid.
When worn, the arm gently assists the drooping eyelid to remain open — improving your field of vision immediately.
The crutch is adjustable to suit the degree of droop in your individual eyelid — fine-tuned for your situation.
ARTView frames can be fitted with your prescription lenses — ptosis support and vision correction in one pair.
47+ frame styles across adults and children. All available with optional prescription lenses. Shipped worldwide.
Square and rectangle full frames with the integrated ARTView crutch. Multiple colours and sizes. Suitable for mild to more significant ptosis.
Dedicated children's range with smaller frame sizes and a soft nylon crutch — specifically designed for safety and comfort in younger wearers.
All ARTView ptosis frames can be fitted with your prescription — single vision, bifocal or progressive. One pair for both ptosis support and vision correction.

Ptosis crutch glasses are spectacle frames fitted with a small adjustable support arm on the inside of the lens. When worn, this arm gently assists the drooping upper eyelid to stay open, giving you a clearer field of vision. From the outside they look like regular glasses — the mechanism is on the inner face of the frame and is not visible to others.
For many people with mild to moderate ptosis, yes — they can make a meaningful practical difference to daily comfort and vision while worn. They work by assisting the eyelid mechanically, not by addressing the underlying cause. When the glasses are removed the eyelid returns to its natural position. They are a daily support aid, most effective for age-related and post-procedure ptosis.
