Oculoplasty Disease

Restoring Function. Preserving Appearance.

Oculoplasty disease involves conditions affecting the eyelids, tear ducts, and structures surrounding the eye. Early diagnosis and precise surgical management help restore both function and natural appearance.

What Is Oculoplasty Disease?

Oculoplasty focuses on diseases and structural problems of the eyelids, tear drainage system, orbit (eye socket), and surrounding facial tissues.

These conditions may affect vision, eye protection, tear drainage, and facial symmetry. Proper treatment improves both functional health and cosmetic balance.

Drooping Eyelids (Ptosis)

Can obstruct vision and affect appearance.

Tear Duct Blockage

Causes watering and recurrent infections.

Eyelid Malposition

Inward or outward turning of eyelids.

Orbital Disorders

Swelling or structural changes around the eye.

Trauma & Tumors

Injury or abnormal growths affecting eyelids or orbit.

TYPES OF OCULOPLASTY DISEASE

Ptosis (Drooping Eyelid)

Upper eyelid droops and may block vision.

Blocked Tear Duct

Causes excessive watering and infection.

Entropion

Eyelid turns inward, causing lashes to rub against the eye.

Eyelid Tumors

Benign or malignant growths on eyelids.

Ectropion

Eyelid turns outward, leading to dryness and irritation.

Orbital Inflammation or Tumors

Conditions affecting tissues around the eye.

Symptoms of Oculoplasty Disease

  • Drooping eyelids
  • Excessive tearing
  • Eye irritation
  • Swelling around the eye
  • Visible eyelid growth
  • Redness or discharge
  • Difficulty closing eyes completely
  • Cosmetic asymmetry

Causes of Oculoplasty Disease

  • Aging
  • Congenital defects
  • Trauma or injury
  • Infections
  • Tumors
  • Nerve weakness
  • Previous surgeries

EARLY MANAGEMENT (NON-SURGICAL)

Some mild conditions can be managed conservatively before surgery is considered.

Lubricating Drops

Relieve irritation and dryness.

Antibiotic Medication

For tear duct infections.

Observation & Monitoring

For small benign lesions.

Protective Measures

Prevent corneal damage due to eyelid issues.
