The Floppy Eyelid Syndrome: Evaluating Lid Laxity and Its Correlation to Sleep Apnea Syndrome and Body Mass Index

Table 2

The number of patients having FES is presented here for all subgroups and for all stages of FES. The number of patients without laxity is also noted to facilitate comparison. It is evident from the data that the overall number of patients presenting FES in the SAS group is greater than the one in the normal group.

	SAS group		Normal group
	SAS low BMI	SAS high BMI	Normal low BMI	Normal high BMI
FES stage1	6	17	3	6
FES stage 2	0	5	0	0
