Oculoplasty & Ocular Cosmetic Surgery

1. Ptosis

Ptosis is a condition where the upper eyelid droops, causing vision obstruction and aesthetic concerns. Treatment typically involves eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to reposition and elevate the eyelid to restore both vision and appearance.

2. Entropion and Ectropion

Entropion occurs when the eyelid turns inward, while ectropion involves the eyelid turning outward. Both conditions can cause eye irritation and discomfort. Surgical correction is often necessary to reposition the eyelid.

3. Blepharitis

Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids, which can lead to redness, itching, and crusting. Treatment may include warm compresses, lid hygiene, and antibiotics in some cases.

4. Lid Tumors

Eyelid tumors may be benign or malignant. Surgical excision is the primary treatment, with careful reconstruction to preserve the eyelid's function and appearance.

1. Epiphora

Epiphora is excessive tearing due to inadequate tear drainage. It can be caused by blocked or narrow tear ducts. Treatment may involve surgical procedures to open or bypass the tear ducts.

2. Dacryocystitis

Dacryocystitis is an infection of the lacrimal sac, often due to an obstruction in the tear drainage system. Antibiotics and, in some cases, surgical intervention are necessary to treat this condition.

1. Eyelid and Conjunctival Cancers

Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma are common eyelid and conjunctival cancers. Treatment often involves surgical excision and reconstruction, and may be supplemented with radiation therapy or topical chemotherapy for specific cases.

2. Intraocular Melanoma

Melanoma can occur in the uveal tract of the eye. Treatment options include surgical removal of the affected eye (enucleation), radiation therapy (brachytherapy), or other specialised treatments.

3. Retinoblastoma

This is a rare cancer that affects children, primarily developing in the retina. Treatment may involve chemotherapy, laser therapy, cryotherapy, or even surgical removal of the affected eye, depending on the extent of the disease.
