At Ishraq Eye Center, we offer a complete range of oculoplastic and cosmetic eye procedures designed to enhance both the appearance and function of the eyelids and surrounding area. Using advanced surgical techniques, our goal is to deliver safe, precise, and natural-looking results that improve both vision and aesthetics.
Comprehensive Eye and Eyelid Surgical Solutions
Oculoplastic surgery is a subspecialty of ophthalmology focusing on the eyelids, tear ducts, and orbit (area around the eyes). These procedures may be performed for cosmetic purposes (to restore a youthful, refreshed appearance) or for functional reasons (to improve vision, repair damage, or treat medical conditions).
Our oculoplastic services include:
- Eyelid surgeries – blepharoplasty, ptosis repair, entropion, and ectropion correction
- Tear duct surgeries – dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) and other treatments for blocked tear ducts
- Reconstructive procedures – eyelid and orbital reconstruction after trauma, tumors, or congenital abnormalities
Patients benefit from both aesthetic improvements and functional restoration that can significantly enhance quality of life.
Common Oculoplastic Procedures We Offer
- Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Aesthetic Surgery)
A cosmetic procedure to remove excess skin, fat, and tissue around the eyelids, restoring a more youthful, alert appearance. It is ideal for patients with droopy eyelids, puffy eyes, or a tired look. When vision is impaired due to sagging eyelids, this surgery may also serve a functional purpose. - Ptosis Correction (Droopy Eyelid Repair)
Surgical repair of drooping eyelids caused by weakened eyelid muscles. Ptosis correction improves both vision and appearance, and can be performed on adults and children. - Entropion Repair
Corrects inward-turning eyelids, preventing eyelashes from rubbing against the cornea and causing irritation, tearing, or corneal damage. - Ectropion Repair
Corrects outward-turning eyelids, which can lead to dryness, redness, and discomfort. Surgery restores proper eyelid function and protects the eye surface. - Chalazion Removal
For persistent eyelid bumps caused by blocked oil glands. If not resolved naturally, a minor surgical procedure removes the lump and relieves discomfort. - Tear Duct Surgery (Dacryocystorhinostomy – DCR)
A procedure that treats blocked tear ducts and chronic tearing. DCR creates a new drainage pathway between the tear sac and the nose, providing long-term relief. - Reconstructive Eyelid Surgery
Performed after trauma, tumors, or congenital abnormalities to restore normal function and appearance. Our specialists use advanced microsurgical techniques to ensure precise healing with minimal scarring. - Strabismus Surgery (Squint Correction)
Surgical realignment of the eye muscles to correct misaligned eyes, improving both appearance and binocular vision.
