Oculoplasty and Orbit is a discipline in ophthalmology that deals with plastic and reconstructive surgery around the eyeball, including the eyelids, orbit and lacrimal system.
Most of the oculoplastic conditions need surgical correction. One important indication is cosmetic, but many times these may be vision or sometimes even life threatening. So the oculoplastic surgeons should give equal attention to all perspectives.
The department of orbit and oculoplasty of Disha Eye Hospital is well equipped with modern diagnostic and therapeutic facilities. The faculty comprises of a team of well-trained oculoplastic and orbital surgeons. Patients referred for oculoplasty and orbit procedures are treated with good care and compassion by the team. Disha eye hospital is well equipped with exclusive laminar flow modular operation theatres dedicated for oculoplasty surgeries equipped with operating microscope, surgical light, endonasal endoscope, bipolar, unipolar cautery units, radio frequency cutting-coagulating system, microdrill etc.
