The investigators propose utilizing a simple telemedical protocol to allow patients to substitute the first post-operative visit with a remote survey that includes essential post-operative history, vision measurement, and photographs, all of which can be provided using a personal computer, tablet, or smart phone. The investigators have selected for this purpose a subset of oculoplastic procedures involving the eyelid and lacrimal system that have well-reported low rates of serious complications, since high-risk procedures will likely always require close, in-person care. The investigators hypothesize that telemedicine follow-up for the first post-operative week after low-risk oculoplastic surgery will decrease the time burden on patients without compromising their satisfaction or increase the risk of late post-operative complications.
The aim of the study: Assessment of Changes of Periocular Skin Sensation Following Eyelid and Ocular Surface Surgeries. Study design: an interventional study that will be conducted at the ophthalmology department, Meir hospital, Kfar Saba, Israel. the study will include 60 healthy patients, at the ages of 40-80, which are candidates for eyelid surgery: blepharoptosis repair, blepharoplasty, ectropion repair and entropion repair. The patients will be recruited from Meir's ophthalmology outpatient clinic. Each patient will undergo a full ophthalmologic examination including relevant assessment of the specific eyelid pathology. The eyelid's sensation will be assessed at 6 points of the eyelid using the Cochet-Bonnet filament-type aesthesiometer (Luneau Ophtalmologie, Paris, France). Measurements will take place before surgery, and two weeks, three months and six months after surgery.
