Some of the oculoplastic surgery procedures our surgeons perform cut across three major areas – orbital surgery, tear duct surgery, functional oculoplastic surgeries, and cosmetic procedures. Within the range of these categories are specific protocols lined out to address some health concerns around the face.

Orbital Surgery

Orbital surgery is quite complex as a result of the anatomical layout of the orbit, and this procedure is usually adopted in the management/treatment of Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder wherein the protrusion of the eye is evident. In performing this protocol, the oculoplastic surgeon acts to reposition the bones of the orbital wall to provide enough space to accommodate the tissue behind the eye. Orbital surgery may also be recommended in the removal of tumors, as well as when an eye is being removed right before the insertion of prosthetic implants.

Functional Oculoplastic Surgery Procedures

Under this category are a number of protocols that are meant to help restore the function, as well as the cosmesis of the eyelids and/or face – after the adverse effects of specific medical conditions.

• Entropion Repair: This kind of surgical procedure is aimed at correcting entropion, a condition that is characterized by the abnormal inward turning of the lower eyelid. With this condition, the eye can become red and irritated as the eyelid consistently rubs against it, and the condition may eventually cause the cornea to become scarred. Hence, the intention of the oculoplastic surgeon when carrying out an entropion repair will be to turn the eyelid out – to assume its normal (natural) position – and this is done with the aid of stitches.
• Ectropion Repair: Patients of ectropion have their eyelids abnormally turned outward, to the extent that the eye is left unusually exposed, and could become significantly dry. This condition also causes the redness and irritation of the affected eye and corneal damage. In correcting this disorder, the oculoplastic in Raipur works to tighten and reposition the muscles that are implicated in this case. This procedure may also involve the use of a skin graft on the affected area.
• Ptosis Repair: This procedure is directed at correcting ptosis, a condition whereby the upper eyelid droops, and this will most likely cause the field of vision to be decreased as the lowered eyelid margin interferes with the pupil. Again, individuals suffering from this disease will also find it difficult to keep the eyelid open. In essence, an oculoplastic surgeon will attempt to lift the droopy eyelid to help the patient regain the normal field of vision. This is primarily achieved by shortening the muscle that had stretched to cause the condition in the first instance.

Tear Duct Surgery

Tear duct surgery is employed in addressing tearing disorders which usually involve the lacrimal gland. Tearing disorder may evolve as a result of the excessive drying of the surface of the eye consequent upon the failure of the lacrimal gland to produce sufficient tears – and patients ultimately feel burning and/or tearing sensation in the affected eye. Tearing disorder may also be caused by the blockage of the tear pathway, a situation may lead to tears flowing over the face in an unusual manner. To correct this condition, the oculoplastic surgeon will look to reconstruct the part of the lacrimal system that was affected. A technique known as dacryocystorhinostomy is the most commonly used procedure, and it involves incising a specific part of the nose to enable the placement of a stent used in creating a new tear pathway. The Lester Jones’ procedure, which entails the insertion of a specially made Pyrex glass tube through the inner corner of the eye, is another widely used tear duct surgery.

Cosmetic Oculoplastic Surgeries

Cosmetic oculoplastic surgeries are primarily concerned with improving the aesthetics of the face, and they include a variety of surgical procedures. One common type [of cosmetic oculoplastic surgeries] is blepharoplasty which is carried out to address the issue of droopy eyelid that emerges with increasing age. It involves the removal of excess skin, fat, and muscle around the eyelids to give a rather youthful appearance. Rhinoplasty is another cosmetic oculoplastic surgery Raipur residents can have at The Esthetic Clinics; it involves the recontouring of the bone and cartilage of the nose. Other types include cheek augmentation, chin augmentation, facelift, fat grafting, and facelift.
