What are the various areas in which we work ?
In our Orbit & Oculoplasty department at Kiran Lasik Laser & Eye Care Centre, we deal with all patient related problems of the eyelids, the brow area, the orbit (bony socket in which the eye lies) and the face. We will treat all cosmetic and functional problems of these areas. This is one more step in the direction of providing quality healthcare and eye care to the people of India
What is orbital diseases ?
Orbital diseases involve the tissues lying in the bony socket. Generally, the eyeball protrudes from its socket, producing a widening of the eyelids. Sometimes the patient does not blink frequently, developing a staring gaze. This may be the result of an endocrine disorder (thyroid disease), inflammation of the orbit or a tumor. Generally, these lesions require investigations including CT scan and MRI. Treatment varies from case to case and may involve medical treatment, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy or a combination of these.
What is the role of an oculoplasty Surgeon in an eye hospital?
The eyes are an integral part of the face. In fact this is continuation comprising the Oculofacial continuum. For instance, reconstructing the lids is not similar to any other skin surface as the lids are dynamic, mobile & complex structures. Similarly, fracture treatment around the eyes requires specific expertise and as all these structures are close to the eye, preserving and maintaining vision is of paramount importance. An oculoplasty surgeon provides the necessary specialized expertise to deal with these specific problems. It is the vital link between eye surgery, facial surgery and plastic surgery, with combined benefits. This specialization we feel completes the filling of a very important void in this area of health care.
