I started using Upneeq® (oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution), 0.1% to treat my acquired ptosis because I didn’t like how my eyelids looked. But after using the eyedrop, my eyes are open wider and I get the benefit of looking more awake. It’s become a key part of my morning routine! #UpliftYourRoutine #Upneeq
