Oculoplasty, also known as oculoplastic surgery or orbital surgery, is a type of surgical procedure that is performed on the structures around the eye. These structures include the eyelids, the tear ducts, and the orbit (the bony cavity that contains the eye).
Oculoplasty is performed by an ophthalmologist (a doctor who specializes in eye conditions) who has additional training in plastic surgery. The specific type of oculoplastic surgery will depend on the condition being treated and the goals of the procedure.
Some common indications for oculoplasty include droopy eyelids (ptosis), eyelid malposition, eyelid tumors, and tear duct obstruction. Oculoplasty may also be used to repair damage to the eye socket or to the eyelids after trauma or injury.
The specific surgical techniques used in oculoplasty will depend on the condition being treated and the goals of the procedure. The surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia, and it may take several hours to complete. After the surgery, the patient will need to rest and avoid strenuous activities for a period of time to allow the eye to heal.
The services also include Botox for essential spasma, creases around the eyes and tumours.
