Orbital Surgery - Oculoplasty

Oculoplasty, as a concept formed by the combination of reconstructive surgery and ophthalmic plastic surgery, deals with the eyelids, orbit, eye area and tear system. The orbit is the bony cavity surrounding the eye. Diseases in this area are included in the field of orbital surgery. Eye diseases occur as a result of some disorders in the thyroid gland affecting the eye. Graves' disease, also known as toxic thyroid, in eye diseases, when the thyroid gland is overactive, the eyes tend to protrude forward.


Excess thyroid secretion of the body causes such a reaction. Some tests are done to diagnose the disease. The diagnosis of the disease is made through tests such as examination of thyroid hormones in the blood, thyroid scintigraphy and uptake. For the treatment of the disease, medical methods (B-Blocker and Anti-Thyroid drugs, etc.) are preferred and an operation is performed when necessary. The branch dealing with all kinds of diagnosis and treatment of eye tumors is called 'Ocular Oncology'. Tumors involving the eye and its surroundings are classified as eyelid tumors, intraocular tumors, orbital tumors and conjunctival tumors. Although tumor formation in and around the eye is not very common, it causes eye loss if it occurs. The basic principle in ocular oncology is to make treatment decisions that will not endanger the patient's life. Correct diagnosis and treatment of tumors located in the eye and surrounding tissues is important. An oculoplastic surgery is performed by an ophthalmologist specialized in this field. This surgery is used in the treatment of lacrimal vein occlusions.


In oculoplastic surgery, all tissues in the eye area are included in this area. Forehead, cheeks, eyebrows, eyelids, tear system, etc. Surgical and aesthetic operations in the fields are oculoplastic surgery. The size, size and position of the eyelids are very important in terms of aesthetics and visual quality.


Likewise, treating droopy eyelids and removing under-eye bags is known as blepharoplasty. Likewise, low lid (ptosis) is an eye disease that can cause problems both in terms of aesthetics and visual quality. A droopy eyelid is when the lid at the top of the eye tends to go down. Situations such as this result from involuntary situations such as excessive tension of the eyelid muscles or inability to function. Sometimes it also occurs depending on age.
