Oculoplasty
Oculoplasty and orbital surgery is a specialty that deals with diseases of the eyelids, tear ducts, and orbital sockets.
Oculoplasty and orbital surgery are performed for the treatment of all eye diseases such as the removal of eye bags, the construction of prosthetic eyes, from intraocular tumor surgeries to botox, almond eye, chalazion, plexer and thyroid eye disease, and aesthetic surgery applications.
The eyelid is a much more sensitive area than other tissues in the body. The eyelid skin is the thinnest skin area of the body. In all surgical interventions in oculoplastic and orbital surgery, it is very important not to damage healthy tissues and to intervene only where necessary. The operation to be performed must be performed by ophthalmologists with multi-case experience who are trained in oculoplastic surgery, and who know the eyelid anatomy and principles of aesthetic surgery.
Blepharoplasty
It is the surgical removal of the excess skin, muscle or fat on the lower or upper lids of the eye.
Droopy Eyelid (Ptosis)
A droopy upper eyelid is called ptosis. Lid droop can be seen at any age. It is treated with eyelid surgery.
Turning Inwards (Entropin)
The inward turning of the eyelids is called entropion. Entropion usually occurs in the lower eyelid. Very rarely, it can also be on the upper lid. Although entropion is mostly caused by age-related valve loosening, it can also be due to scars called congenital scars. The treatment is surgery.
Outward Turning of the Lids (Ektropin)
The outward turning of the eyelids is called "ectropion". Ectropion happens on the lower eyelid. Although ectropion is mostly caused by age-related eyelid relaxation, the other reasons are scars (cicatricial), facial nerve palsy, and allergies. The treatment is surgery.
Chalazion
The ends of the sebaceous glands on the eyelids are the pores at the bottom of the eyelashes. As a result of the clogging of these pores due to lubrication, make-up and infection, swelling and inflammation occur in the sebaceous gland behind. The transformation of this into a cyst over time is called a chalazion. These cysts may need to be surgically removed.
Fat Plaque on the Eyelid (Xanthelasma)
It is a fat-cholesterol plaque that is usually seen in women. It occurs in the inner parts of the lower and upper eyelids. High cholesterol should be suspected in xanthelasma seen at a young age. The treatment is surgery.
Eyelid Masses
Masses that develop on their lids can be benign or malignant. The treatment of such masses is often surgical. The removed mass should be sent for pathology examination.
Ingrown Eyelashes (Trichiasis)
Inward-looking eyelashes cause stinging and discomfort, as well as an unaesthetic appearance. These eyelashes rub against the cornea and damage the cornea. They can reduce vision by causing permanent scars on the cornea. Treatment: Inverted eyelashes are plucked with tweezers, or their roots can be burned with cautery. Inverted eyelash roots can also be frozen with a device called "cryo".
Tear Duct Occlusion
The tear fluid, which moistens the eye, moves towards the nose through the small canals in the inner part of the eye. The disease occurs as a result of obstruction of this duct, mostly in the lower part of the lacrimal sac. Antibiotic eye drops are used for burring in the eye. Treatment of Tear Duct Obstruction in Adults; Laser or surgery.
Graves' Disease
Graves' disease is an immune system disorder that causes excessive secretion of thyroid hormone, leading to hyperthyroidism. Although the exact cause of Graves' disease is not known, smoking can increase the risk. As a result of the disease, the eye grows forward and the eyelid opens. It can be dangerous for the eyes. The main treatment is thyroid gland treatment, followed by some other procedures like radioactive Iodine therapy or surgery.
Eye Prosthesis
Eye prostheses are used when the eye is surgically removed as a result of accidents or diseases. These prostheses do not provide vision, they are used for appearance.
