Indications for Oculoplastic Eye Surgery
Should you experience any change in either function or aesthetics in your eyes, then contact an oculoplastic surgeon near me from Manorama Netralaya. The following are indications to visit such an eye specialist:
- Ptosis, where the eyelids are droopy to the extent that vision is hindered
- Inwards or outwards turning of eyelids
- Chronic tearing due to clogged tear ducts
- Growths in the form of lumps or nodules on the eyelid or orbit
- Fat accumulation or loose skin on the upper and lower eyelids
- Persistent ocular surface inflammation or dry eyeballs failing to respond to basic artificial tears
Understanding Symptoms & Treatments for Severe Dry Eye
A condition called dry eye disease happens when the eyes do not have sufficient tear production or the tears evaporate too quickly. The symptoms of severe dry eye disease include:
- Persistent burning or stinging feeling in the eyes
- Eyelid heaviness, redness, and sensitivity to light
- Eyes become excessively watery because of reflexive tearing due to the irritated surface of the eye
- Blurring of vision that improves after blinking

As leading dry eye specialists in Thane and Mulund, our doctors provide targeted diagnostic testing (TBUT and Schirmer's tests) to deliver an effective dry eye solution. Treatments range from prescription anti-inflammatory drops and punctal plugs to specialized eyelid margin hygiene for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).

FAQ’s
1. What is Oculoplastic Surgery, and what conditions does it treat?
Oculoplastic surgery is a specialized branch of ophthalmology that combines microsurgical eye precision with facial plastic surgery techniques. It treats functional and aesthetic conditions affecting the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit (eye socket), and facial structures including drooping eyelids (ptosis), inward/outward turned eyelids (entropion/ectropion), eyelid tumors, facial trauma, and thyroid eye disease.
2. How do I know if my watery eyes are caused by a blocked tear duct, and how is it treated?
Persistent excessive tearing, eye discharge, or swelling near the inner corner of the eye often indicates a blocked tear duct (lacrimal duct obstruction). At Manorama Netralaya, our oculoplastic surgeons perform procedures like Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) to create a new drainage pathway, restoring normal tear flow and eliminating chronic watery eyes.
3. What causes severe Dry Eye Syndrome, and how is it diagnosed at your clinic?
Dry eye syndrome occurs when your eyes produce insufficient tears or when tears evaporate too quickly due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). To pinpoint the exact cause of your discomfort, our specialists perform advanced diagnostic tests, including the Schirmer’s Test (to measure tear volume) and Tear Film Break-Up Time (TBUT) (to evaluate tear quality and evaporation rates).
4. What treatment options are available for chronic or advanced dry eyes?
If artificial tears fail to provide relief, we offer targeted dry eye therapies ranging from prescription anti-inflammatory drops and specialized eyelid margin hygiene (for MGD) to Punctal Plugs, tiny, painless devices inserted into the tear drainage ducts to retain natural moisture on the ocular surface for longer periods.
5. Is Drooping Eyelid (Ptosis) surgery cosmetic or functional, and how is it performed?
Ptosis correction can be both functional and aesthetic. When severe drooping blocks your upper field of vision or causes eyebrow strain, surgery becomes medically necessary to lift the eyelid margin. Our experienced oculoplastic surgeons in Mulund and Thane perform precise, minimally invasive eyelid elevation surgeries that improve both visual clearance and facial symmetry.
