I don't have any advice, but I do wish you luck.

The ophthalmologist that has been seeing me is just a regular ophthalmologist with an interest in neuro stuff. He actually made the initial diagnosis of MG and seems to know way more about it than anybody else that I have seen. He sent me to another ophthalmologist in his practice that does eyelid surgery to see if he thought that an eyelid "tuck" would help me see out better. This guy also seemed to be very familiar with MG, but he wouldn't do any surgery. He said that eyelid surgery for MG was like trying to shoot a moving target since it changes all the time. Both know more about MG than any other doctor (including the neuros) I have been to.

Again, good luck and let us know how it goes.
