several months
enough to frequently close left eye using right only. less of a problem with close-up viewing as in reading.
Sight in left eye distorted as a result of Macular Degeneration although follow-up examinations this past year and a half actually slightly improving according to retina specialist.
no surgical procedure other than receiving an injection in that eye when first diagnose

Brief Answer:
conservative management
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for getting back to us with more information.
I have to know what injection was given to that eye,was it boutox in the lid or eye brow or inside the eye i.e.intravitreal.
My approach will be to have aconservative approach to start with ,multivitamins and lubricating eye drops and if this doesn't help then have boutox injection which will relieve the problem for approximately 6 months.
Please do get back to me in case of any further query in this regard.
