The eyelids frame and protect our eyes. Diseases affecting our eyelids can cause constant irritation, watering, discomfort or cosmetic impairment. Some conditions can be treated with simple measures and eye drops. Other conditions may require surgery. Poorva Eye Care has surgeons skilled in treating diseases like ectropion, entropion, eyelid tumours, blephroplasty etc.
The tear ducts drain the tears from the inner corner of the eyes to the nasal cavity. Occasionally they become infected. Acute infections are treated with medicines. Chronic infections lead to blockage of the passages causing constant watering. Surgery is required to overcome the block. Different surgical options are available (DCR, Endo DCR and DCT) and the decision to operate and type of surgery is decided by the surgeon.
The orbits are the bony sockets housing the eyeballs. They may be affected by injury, infections, tumours or diseases like Thyroid Eye Disease. Rarely the eyeball may have to be removed due to certain critical eye diseases. Orbital implants are placed in the orbit to restore a more natural appearance. We use the latest type of implants to achieve a better cosmetic result.
