Eyelid conditions
Assessment can address ptosis, excess eyelid skin, eyelids turning inward or outward, spasms and eyelid lesions.
Get specialist assessment and coordinated care for eyelid, tear-duct, eye-socket and reconstructive concerns, with clear guidance from consultation through recovery.
Oculoplasty is a specialist area of ophthalmology focused on the eyelids, tear-drainage system, orbit and surrounding facial structures.
Care may be functional, reconstructive or cosmetic. It can address drooping or poorly positioned eyelids, watering from tear-duct problems, eyelid lumps, injury, and conditions affecting the eye socket.
Assessment can address ptosis, excess eyelid skin, eyelids turning inward or outward, spasms and eyelid lesions.
Persistent watering, discharge or recurrent infection may require examination of the punctum and tear-drainage pathway.
Specialist care can support trauma repair, thyroid eye disease, orbital inflammation and selected growths or tumours.
The pathway is adapted to your diagnosis and goals, bringing specialist examination, investigations, treatment planning and aftercare together.
Discuss symptoms, duration, previous eye treatment, medical history and whether the concern affects vision, comfort, appearance or tear drainage.
Your specialist examines vision, eyelid position and movement, the eye surface, tear drainage and orbital signs, with imaging or tests when needed.
Understand whether observation, medication, an office procedure or surgery is appropriate, including realistic benefits, risks and alternatives.
Receive procedure-specific preparation and coordinated follow-up to monitor wound healing, eyelid function, comfort and visual symptoms.
Costs vary because oculoplasty includes many different eyelid, tear-duct and orbital procedures. Your estimate is based on the confirmed diagnosis and treatment plan.

A final quotation is provided only after clinical assessment and confirmation of your treatment plan.The right treatment depends on whether the concern involves eyelid position, tear drainage, the eye socket, trauma or a growth that requires evaluation.
Procedures may correct a drooping eyelid, excess skin, or an eyelid that turns inward or outward when function, comfort or vision is affected.
Punctoplasty, probing, intubation or tear-duct bypass surgery may be considered when testing confirms narrowing or blockage in the drainage pathway.
Treatment may include eyelid lesion removal and reconstruction, trauma repair, biopsy or surgery for selected orbital conditions.
Oculoplasty is not one procedure. Your specialist should explain the diagnosis, functional and cosmetic considerations, alternatives, likely recovery and procedure-specific risks.
Discuss your options
We help connect the specialist, investigations, procedure and follow-up involved in your treatment—so each decision feels clearer.
Connect with oculoplastic expertise suited to eyelid, lacrimal, orbital or reconstructive concerns.
Bring eye examination, tear-drainage testing, imaging or pathology into one organised pathway.
Understand the functional and cosmetic goals, alternatives, procedure and expected recovery before deciding.
Keep wound-care instructions, reviews and communication with the treating team better organised.
Recovery differs between eyelid, tear-duct and orbital procedures. Your specialist will provide instructions specific to your operation and health.
Arrange transport when advised, use prescribed medication and keep any dressing or eye pad in place for the recommended time.
Temporary swelling, bruising, watering or mild discomfort can occur. Use cool compresses and medication only as instructed.
Avoid rubbing, makeup, contact lenses, swimming or strenuous activity until your clinical team says these are safe.
Your specialist checks wound healing, eyelid position, tear drainage, eye comfort and any visual symptoms.
These answers provide general guidance. Your oculoplastic specialist will confirm what applies after examining the eyelids, eye surface, tear drainage and orbit.
Our care team can help you understand the consultation process.
Oculoplasty covers conditions of the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit and surrounding facial tissues. Treatment can be functional, reconstructive or cosmetic.
Assessment may help with drooping or poorly positioned eyelids, persistent watering, recurrent tear-duct infection, eyelid lumps, spasms, trauma or eye-socket symptoms.
No. Some concerns can be monitored or treated with medication or office-based procedures. Surgery is considered when it is expected to improve function, comfort, reconstruction or an agreed cosmetic goal.
Depending on the procedure and patient, treatment may use local anaesthesia, local anaesthesia with sedation, or general anaesthesia. Your surgeon and anaesthesia team will recommend the safest appropriate option.
Some eyelid procedures place incisions in natural creases or on the inner eyelid, but scar location and visibility depend on the operation and individual healing. Your surgeon should explain this beforehand.
Recovery varies widely by procedure. Swelling or bruising may occur early, and return to work or normal activity depends on the operation, healing and your surgeon's advice.
