instruction: hello doctor my dad is 78 years old recently one month back he had acute left medullary infact with hyperacute infact of the midbrain after which he is unable to open both of his eyelids on his own but can see when we lift the eyelids also his voice was very low after a month now his speech has improved but the eyelids issue is still there can you please suggest any treatment for his eyelids to open
output: hello as you have described your father had brain infact after that he developed all symptoms related to eye right so let me explain you that in case of stroke or infact in the brain there will be involvement of cranial nerves also the cranial nerve which is responsible for elevation of eyelid will also get affected in such situations like stroke so the same thing has happened here in your father case so for treatment of his eyelids only surgery you can plan but you should consult oculoplastic surgeon for that he is the one who will measure all the parameters and depending on that he will tell you which surgery he should undergo so my advice is you should take your father to an oculoplastic surgeon for this problem I hope this helps
