A modified technique of sutureless Fasanella-Servat Operation (F.S.O.) using special curved haemostat for the correction of mild to moderate acquired ptosis with good Levator Palpebrae Superioris (L.P.S.) action (12 m.m.) was performed in a large series of 50 eyes. Excellent correction was achieved in 94.6% eyes with mild ptosis & 61.6% eyes with moderate ptosis. No operative and post operative complications were observed. The technique was found to be very safe, quick and effective.
