Filter by:Patients with blepharoptosis who are treated with Müller's muscle-conjunctival resection (MMCR) may experience postoperative pain and discomfort related to the suture material on the palpebral conjunctiva. This study aims to compare the postoperative subjective complaints, such as pain and discomfort, with a visual analog scale (VAS) and objectively evaluate the cornea with a tear break-up time (TBUT) test and fluorescein staining following MMCR that was managed by either a bandage contact lens (BCL) or eye patching.
The tear trough deformity is a challenging cosmetic condition.surgical treatment and filling are good treatment options
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of using Tamsulosin for treatment of eyelid retraction as part of thyroid eye disease. The treatment will be offered to all thyroid patients suffering from eyelid retraction who are treated at the thyroid clinic in Sheba's Ophthalmology department. All patient will receive information about the drug Tamsulosin, the possible side effects, and the alternative treatment options for retraction. Patients recruited will take 0.4mg/day Tamsulosin for 3 months and will have follow-ups at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months to evaluate the retraction status.
Surgery involves eyelid margin asscocited with intraoperative bleeding. Proper intra-operative homeostasis is essential for good intraoperative procedure and postoperative results.
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.
Upper blepharoplasty is a common eyelid procedure. It associated with visual, cosmetic and functional changes .Investigator will evaluate outcome of this procedure.
This study aims : - To assess the efficacy of fluorometholone 0.1% one drop twice daily for four weeks in reducing the incidence of post-operative trachomatous trichiasis (TT) when given as adjunctive therapy with TT surgery in the programmatic setting - To assess whether such treatment is sufficiently safe for wide-scale implementation in TT programs. - To estimate the costs of adding fluorometholone 0.1% treatment to TT surgery per case of postoperative TT averted, and to characterize the value of such treatment under a range of plausible health economic circumstances
To determine which of three types of spacer grafts (hard palate vs autologous ear cartilage vs Enduragen) are the most effective in lower eyelid retraction repair outcomes as measured by MRD2 (margin to reflex distance 2)
Eyelid surgery is commonly performed under local anaesthesia. For many such procedures, the local anaesthetic injection may be given either transcutaneously (through the skin) or transconjunctivally (through the conjunctiva, i.e. from the inner surface of the eyelid after administration of topical anaesthetic drops). Both methods are commonly used, sometimes in combination. Currently, the choice of route is largely determined by surgeon preference, but it is not known whether one method is better or more comfortable than the other. Our study will compare the two methods of local anaesthetic administration, in terms of patient comfort during anaesthetic administration, efficacy (i.e. whether any additional anaesthetic is needed during surgery), and adverse effects (e.g. bruising, postoperative double vision). We will recruit adult patients who are due to undergo eyelid surgery on both sides under local anaesthesia, on Miss Siah's lists at Southampton General Hospital or Lymington Hospital. Patients will receive topical anaesthetic eye drops to both eyes, followed by an injection of local anaesthetic to each eyelid. One side will be administered transcutaneously, and the other side transconjunctivally. The order be randomised. After the injections, participants will be asked to rate their pain levels during each injection on a standardised numerical scale (1-10). A photograph will also be taken, so that an independent assessor can subsequently rate the extent of any bruising. The eyelid surgery will then be performed as normal, with any need for further anaesthetic during the surgery being recorded. Patients will attend for their normal follow-up appointment afterwards and any postoperative complications will be recorded, but the study will not require any extra hospital visits. The study is sponsored by University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, but does not have any external funding.
The investigators propose a prospective randomized control trial testing the hypothesis that routine topical antibiotic prophylaxis does not significantly reduce the rate of infection after eyelid surgery.
