Glucose metabolism in the idiopathic blepharoptosis: Utility of the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and of the Insulin Resistance Index

In this study we focused on emerging evidence that prediabetic status may represent a risk factor for developing blepharoptosis. We propose that 2 h-OGTT and mainly HOMA-index should be determined as a rule in all patients with idiopathic blepharoptosis.
