: The authors compare the outcomes and revision rates for external levator aponeurotic advancement for the treatment of involutional ptosis using non-absorbable silk and absorbable polyglactin sutures.: An IRB-approved retrospective chart review identified 121 patients who underwent external levator advancement for involutional ptosis between 2015 and 2016 by the senior author (JBH). All patients underwent ptosis repair using either 5-0 polyglactin 910 on a S-14 spatulated needle or 6-0 silk on a G-1 reverse cutting needle for the aponeurotic advancement.
