Oculoplastic Surgery

Restoring Function and Appearance to the Eyelids and Surrounding Structures

What it is

Understanding Oculoplastic Surgery

Conditions affecting the eyelids, tear drainage system, and orbit are both medically important and visually significant. A drooping upper eyelid can block the visual axis and, in children, cause permanent amblyopia if not corrected promptly. Eyelids that turn inward or outward cause chronic corneal irritation, tearing, and damage that does not resolve without surgical correction.

Peshawar Eye Hospital's oculoplastic service corrects the full range of eyelid and periocular conditions ptosis, entropion, ectropion, chalazion, and orbital disease with surgical techniques that restore normal function and natural appearance. Procedures are performed under local anaesthesia with sedation as comfortable outpatient or day-case treatments.
