Speciality

Oculoplastic Surgery in Gurgaon — Eyelid, Tear Duct & Orbit

The eyelids protect your sight and shape your face, so surgery around them has to do two jobs at once. Our AIIMS- and UK-trained oculoplasty team treats drooping lids, watering eyes, injuries and tumours around the eye — and, when that is what you came for, refreshes tired-looking eyes with the same millimetre precision.

Every plan starts with a measured eyelid and orbit assessment

In Short

Oculoplasty is plastic and reconstructive surgery of the structures around the eye — the eyelids, the tear drainage system, the eye socket (orbit) and the bones behind it. It is performed by an ophthalmologist with additional fellowship training, because millimetres here decide both how you see and how you look.

Half of what we do restores function — lifting a lid off the pupil, unblocking a tear duct, rebuilding after trauma or a tumour. The other half is aesthetic — removing hooded skin, eye bags and dark hollows. Both are done in the same NABH-accredited theatre, usually as day care.

When To Come In

Signs You Need an Oculoplastic Surgeon

Most people live with these for years, assuming nothing can be done or that it is “only cosmetic”. Both halves below are treated by the same specialist, in the same sitting where appropriate.

Functional Signs

These affect how your eye works and are usually insurance-covered.

An upper eyelid that droops over the pupil, so you raise your brow or tilt your head back to see.

Constant watering that runs down the cheek, or a sticky discharge and swelling near the inner corner.

Lashes rubbing against the eye, or a lid that has fallen away from the eyeball leaving it exposed.

A lump, ulcer or a lash-line lesion that bleeds, crusts or keeps growing.

An eye that looks pushed forward, or double vision after a blow to the face.

A child whose eyelid covers part of the pupil, or who tilts the chin up to see.

Appearance Concerns

Elective, self-paid, and just as carefully planned.

Hooded upper lids that make eye make-up disappear and the face look tired.

Puffy lower lids or eye bags that are there from the moment you wake up.

Dark circles caused by a hollow under the eye rather than by pigment.

Crow’s feet and fine lines that deepen every time you smile.

Eyes that look asymmetric in photographs — one lid noticeably lower than the other.

Being told you look exhausted or unhappy when you feel neither.

Your Surgeon

Operated On by the Surgeon Who Only Does This

Oculoplasty is measured in millimetres and judged in the mirror for the rest of your life. It deserves a dedicated surgeon, not an occasional one.

Why Us

Why Patients Choose Dayal Eye Centre for Oculoplasty

Five reasons specific to eyelid, tear duct and orbital surgery — not a general hospital list.

Book a Consultation
01

A Dedicated Oculoplasty Surgeon

Not a general ophthalmologist who occasionally operates on lids — periocular plastic and reconstructive surgery is the whole of her practice.

02

Functional and Aesthetic Together

The same team that repairs a lid after trauma also does the cosmetic work, so form and function are planned in one sitting rather than in sequence.

03

NABH Modular Theatre

Audited infection control, laminar flow and full anaesthesia support — needed for orbital, paediatric and general-anaesthesia cases.

04

Every Sub-Speciality in the Building

Cornea, retina, glaucoma and paediatric colleagues on hand for when a lid problem turns out to be more than a lid problem.

05

Transparent, Written Pricing

An itemised estimate before admission, cashless where your policy allows, and Easy EMI for elective aesthetic work.

Not Sure Which Specialist You Need?

Watering, redness and irritation can come from the lids, the tear duct or the ocular surface. One consultation sorts out which, and you are seen by the right sub-specialist the same day where possible.

Our Procedures

Every Oculoplasty Procedure We Perform

Eleven procedures across eyelid, tear duct, orbit and aesthetics — all under one roof, all performed by a fellowship-trained oculoplasty surgeon.

01 Functional

Ptosis Correction

Drooping upper eyelid

The lid margin sits low and shades the pupil, so you tilt your head or lift your brow to see. We measure levator function and tighten or reposition the muscle so the lid clears the pupil and matches the other side.

45–75 min
Day care
02 Aesthetic

Blepharoplasty — Upper Lid

Hooded eyelid skin

Excess skin over the upper lid makes the eyes look heavy and can narrow your field of view. Surplus skin and a strip of muscle are removed through the natural crease, so the healed line hides where it folds.

45–60 min
Day care
03 Aesthetic

Blepharoplasty — Lower Lid

Eye bags, tear-trough hollows

Fat that has slipped forward is repositioned rather than simply removed, which is what keeps the result looking rested instead of hollowed. Often done from inside the lid with no external scar.

60–90 min
Day care
04 Functional

DCR — Tear Duct Surgery

Watering eye, blocked duct

When the tear duct is blocked, tears spill down the cheek and the sac can become infected. DCR creates a new drainage passage — endoscopically through the nose where suitable, so there is no facial scar.

60–90 min
Day care
05 Functional

Entropion & Ectropion Repair

In-turned or out-turned lid

A lid that rolls inward drags lashes across the cornea; one that falls outward leaves the eye exposed and watering. Both are corrected by tightening and repositioning the lid margin.

40–60 min
Day care
06 Functional

Eyelid Tumour Surgery

Lid lumps, ocular oncology

Suspicious lid lesions are excised with clear margins and sent for biopsy, then the lid is reconstructed in the same sitting so both closure and appearance are restored.

60–120 min
Day care / stay
07 Functional

Orbital Trauma & Fracture Repair

Blow-out fracture, injury

Fractures of the thin orbital walls can trap muscle, cause double vision and let the eye sink backwards. Repair restores the socket volume and releases trapped tissue.

90–150 min
Inpatient
08 Functional

Thyroid Eye Disease Care

Proptosis, bulging eyes

Thyroid eye disease is managed medically first, then surgically — orbital decompression for bulging or optic nerve pressure, followed by squint and lid surgery in the right order.

Staged
Inpatient
09 Functional

Socket Surgery & Prosthesis

Artificial eye fitting

After eye removal or in a shrunken socket, an implant restores volume and a custom-painted prosthetic shell is fitted to match your other eye in colour and movement.

60–120 min
Day care / stay
10 Aesthetic

Botox — Lines & Spasm

Crow’s feet, blepharospasm

The same injection treats two very different things: fine dynamic lines around the eyes, and the involuntary lid twitching of blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm. Effect lasts three to four months.

15–20 min
Walk in / out
11 Aesthetic

Fillers & Dark Circles

Tear-trough hollows

Hollowing under the eye casts a shadow that reads as a dark circle. Hyaluronic acid filler placed deep in the tear trough softens it — conservatively, and only when pigment is not the real cause.

20–30 min
Walk in / out

The Functional Half

Ptosis, DCR, entropion, ectropion, tumours, trauma, thyroid eye disease and socket surgery exist to protect vision and comfort. These are medical procedures, documented as such, and are usually claimable through your health insurance — our desk handles the paperwork, cashless where your policy allows.

The Aesthetic Half

Blepharoplasty, Botox and tear-trough fillers are elective and self-paid. We approach them conservatively: the aim is to look rested rather than altered, and we will tell you plainly when a procedure will not give you what you are hoping for.

Your Assessment

What Happens at Your First Visit

Eyelid surgery is measured surgery. Before anything is planned we record lid height and crease position, levator muscle function, tear film and corneal health, and — where relevant — how the lids sit against your own facial proportions.

For watering eyes we syringe the tear passage to confirm where the blockage is. For orbital problems we correlate the examination with a CT or MRI scan. You leave the first visit knowing which procedure is being recommended, why, and what it will cost.

Day-Care Recovery

Most patients rest for two to three hours and go home the same day.

The Procedure

Your Surgery Day, Step by Step

Most eyelid procedures: 30–60 minutes
1

Reporting & Marking

You report fasting as advised. The surgeon marks the eyelid with you sitting upright — lid position changes when you lie down, so this is done before, not on the table.

2

Anaesthesia

Most procedures use local anaesthesia with light sedation, so you are comfortable and awake enough to open and close the eye when asked. Children and orbital work use general anaesthesia.

3

The Surgery

Thirty to ninety minutes for most eyelid and tear duct procedures. Incisions follow the natural crease, lash line or the inside of the lid wherever the anatomy allows.

4

Check & Adjust

For ptosis and lid surgery the height and contour are checked against the other side during the procedure and adjusted before closing — the reason local anaesthesia is preferred.

5

Home the Same Day

Two to three hours of observation, cold compresses, drops and a written aftercare sheet. You go home the same day and are reviewed the next morning.

Care at Every Step

Recovery, Candidacy and Honest Expectations

Recovery After Eyelid and Orbital Surgery

First 48 hours
  • Cold compresses ten minutes an hour while awake — this does more for swelling than anything else.
  • Sleep with two pillows so the head stays above the heart.
  • Antibiotic and lubricating drops or ointment exactly as prescribed.
  • Expect bruising to look worse on day two or three before it improves.
Week 1
  • Reviewed the day after surgery and again at the end of the week.
  • Sutures removed around day five to seven where non-absorbable stitches were used.
  • Desk work and screens are fine from around day five; avoid dusty sites and gyms.
  • Keep the area dry while washing; no eye make-up yet.
Weeks 2–4
  • Most visible bruising has gone; mild swelling can persist, often more on one side.
  • Make-up can usually resume once the wound is fully closed — confirmed at your review.
  • Gym, swimming and heavy lifting resume from around three to four weeks.
  • Sun protection helps the scar fade evenly.
Months 2–6
  • Scars continue to pale and soften; final contour settles by around three months.
  • Small asymmetries are reassessed at this stage, before considering any minor revision.
  • Botox is repeated at three to four months if you choose to maintain it.

FAQs

Oculoplasty, Answered

The questions patients ask us most before eyelid, tear duct and orbital surgery.

Both. Oculoplasty covers functional surgery — ptosis, watering eyes, entropion, orbital injury, eyelid tumours — and aesthetic work such as blepharoplasty, Botox and tear-trough fillers. Many patients come for one and benefit from the other, because the same surgery restores both the function and the natural shape of the eyelid.

Incisions are placed in the natural eyelid crease, along the lash line or inside the lid so that healed scars are very difficult to see. Eyelid skin heals better than almost anywhere else on the body. Early redness settles over a few weeks and continues to fade for several months.

Functional procedures — ptosis affecting vision, DCR for a blocked tear duct, entropion or ectropion repair, eyelid tumour removal, orbital fracture repair and socket surgery — are usually covered and can often be done cashless. Purely cosmetic procedures such as aesthetic blepharoplasty, Botox and fillers are not covered. Our insurance desk confirms your position before the date.

Most eyelid procedures are day care under local anaesthesia and you go home the same day. Swelling and bruising peak at two to three days and largely settle within one to two weeks. Most people return to desk work in about a week, and to the gym after three to four weeks.

The surgery is done under local anaesthesia with sedation, so you feel pressure rather than pain. Afterwards there is mild soreness for a few days, managed with simple painkillers, cold compresses and the drops we prescribe.

Constant watering is often a blocked tear drainage duct, but it can also come from dry eye, an in-turned eyelid or lid laxity. A syringing and probing test at the clinic tells us which it is in minutes, and only a true blockage needs DCR surgery.

If the droop covers the pupil it can cause lazy eye and needs early surgery, sometimes within the first years of life. If vision is not blocked, surgery is usually planned around three to five years of age when eyelid measurements are more reliable. A paediatric assessment decides the timing.

Indicative ranges run from around ₹8,000 for a small lid lesion to ₹2,50,000 for orbital decompression, depending on the procedure, the anaesthesia and whether one or both eyes are treated. Your exact estimate is given in writing after examination, and Easy EMI options are available.
