A<unk>  crutch is bar that is placed along the inside of an eyewire frame that supports the drooping eyelid. The crutch is positioned where the orbital fold would typically be without<unk> . The<unk> hould create a fold above the eye, tucking the lid in and raising it above the pupil. The<unk>  crutch is designed around the shape and contour of the eye. It is typically made out of metal wire. To create the crutch, measurements must be first taken to determine the depth of the<unk>  eye crutch. An optician may use a distometer or a millimeter ruler to take measurements. The distometer is held against the ocular side of the frame, at the middle of the upper eyewire. Measurements are then taken from the deepest point under the eyelid, up to where it meets the overhang of the eyewear's eyewire. Most measurements come in between 15 and 20 millimeters, but extended or reduced lengths may occur too. It is important that the eyewear is properly adjusted to the back of the ears. Sometimes cable temples are recommendable for optimal functionality.<unk>  are a little-known option and are an alternative to surgery or eyelids that may not be currently repairable. Many optometrists may be unaware of it or may not know how to install the crutch on an existing pair of eyeglasses. A number of eyeglass companies can install<unk>  to new or existing frames.
