Oculoplastic Surgery in Mumbai

What is Oculoplastic Surgery?

Oculoplastic surgery is a specialized branch of eye care focused on the structures around the eyes, including the eyelids, tear drainage system, orbit, and surrounding facial tissues.

It combines ophthalmic surgery with reconstructive and cosmetic techniques. The goal may be to improve comfort, protect the eye, restore normal function, improve appearance, or address both medical and aesthetic concerns together.

Because these areas contain delicate eye and facial structures, oculoplastic care requires a detailed understanding of eye health, facial anatomy, healing, and visual safety.

Eyelid disorders we treat

Eyelid conditions may be present from birth, develop with age, follow injury, or occur because of other health problems. Treatment is planned with both vision and appearance in mind.

• Ptosis: Drooping of the upper eyelid that may block vision or create a tired appearance.
• Congenital malformations: Eyelid abnormalities present from birth.
• Trauma: Cuts or injuries around the eyelids that may need careful repair.
• Eyelid tumors: Benign or suspicious growths that require evaluation and treatment planning.
• Malpositions: Entropion, where the eyelid turns inward, and ectropion, where it turns outward.
• Chalazia and styes: Painful, persistent, or recurring eyelid lumps.
• Blepharospasm: Uncontrolled eyelid blinking or twitching.
• Eyelash abnormalities: Lashes that grow in the wrong direction and irritate the eye.

Orbital conditions we treat

The orbit is the bony socket around the eye. Orbital problems can affect eye position, comfort, movement, appearance, and sometimes vision.

• Thyroid eye disease: Eye changes linked to thyroid imbalance, including bulging eyes, discomfort, or vision concerns.
• Orbital inflammation: Swelling or inflammation in tissues around the eye.
• Orbital tumors: Growths that may affect eye socket structure or eye function.
• Orbital fractures: Bone injuries around the eye after trauma.
• Socket care: Reconstruction and care after eye removal when medically necessary.

Lacrimal and tear drainage care

Tear drainage problems can cause persistent watering, discharge, irritation, or repeated infections. A detailed evaluation helps identify whether the issue is blockage, narrowing, malposition, trauma, or another cause.

• Nasolacrimal duct obstruction or blocked tear duct.
• Punctal stenosis or malposition.
• Lacrimal trauma and tear drainage injuries.
• Tumors affecting the lacrimal region.
• Persistent tearing without an obvious cause.

Cosmetic oculoplastic surgery

Cosmetic oculoplastic surgery addresses concerns around the eyelids, under-eye area, and nearby facial features while protecting eye comfort and function. The aim is natural-looking improvement rather than an overdone result.

• Drooping or tired-looking upper eyelids.
• Excess eyelid skin.
• Puffy eyelid bags.
• Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes.
• Concerns after previous eyelid surgery.
