Oculoplasty Treatment
Oculoplasty, or oculoplastic surgery, involves a range of surgical procedures that address the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit (eye socket), and surrounding facial structures. These procedures can be both functional and cosmetic, improving vision, comfort, and appearance.
Treatment Options:
- Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): Corrects droopy eyelids (ptosis), removes excess skin, and improves vision.
- Tear Duct Surgery: Addresses blockages and improves tear drainage to alleviate chronic tearing (epiphora). Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) which describes the creation of a functional pathway from the canaliculi into the nose by means of creating an osteotomy and opening the nasolacrimal sac into the noseis also commonly performed.
- Orbital Surgery: Treats conditions like Graves' disease, tumors, and fractures.
- Cosmetic Procedures: Enhances the appearance of the eyes and surrounding areas, including Botox injections and fillers. Oculoplastic surgery combines precision and aesthetics to achieve optimal functional and cosmetic results.
