Manual Of Systematic Eyelid Surgery

This book is a practical guide for anyone who performs eyelid surgery, whatever their specialty, and is particularly relevant for ophthalmologists in training and non-oculoplastic surgeons who may venture into this field. The step-wise text is supported by numerous original illustrations. It emphasises a logical, minimalist approach to lid surgery and challenges some popular practices. The novel techniques unique to this volume may be of interest to experienced oculoplastic surgeons. They include emphasis on the superiority of Meibomian orifice line lid traction suture placement over using the grey line. This makes bolsterless suture tarsorrhaphy a viable and better alternative to temporary surgical tarsorrhaphy. Maximal use of direct closure and directed laissez-faire encourages tissue expansion in eyelid reconstruction, aided greatly by the placement of a magic suture. The seductively simple medial canthal thermoplasty corrects medial lid laxity without dissection. The control of active thyroid eye disease with orbital depot steroid injections, the importance of full orbital volume replacement after eye removal and the superiority of modified Bick lid margin resection over the lateral tarsal strip for lid tightening are further departures from traditional practice.

This textbook details knowledge and techniques required for the management of a broad spectrum of lower eyelid malposition, conditions, and cosmetic surgery. The lower eyelids are very prone to malposition and even mild scarring or slight irregularities cause patient dissatisfaction. Ectropion, lagophthalmos, and retraction are common results of attempts to repair or rejuvenate the periocular area, but also pose serious risks to the eye. Skills in forestalling these issues as well as repairing them when they do are occur are paramount for any facial surgeon and are covered throughout the textbook. Plastic Surgery of the Lower Eyelids explores solutions and treatment of the spectrum of lower eyelid conditions and aesthetic concerns. It also highlights both functional and cosmetic surgery of the lower eyelids and cheeks that often co-exist. In addition to treatments for eyelid retraction that occurs after cosmetic lower eyelid surgery, this textbook details maneuvers that forestall malposition when performing aesthetic surgery. Residents, fellows and clinicians in oculoplastic surgery, ophthalmology, plastic surgery and other related fields will find this textbook to be an essential guide for delivering safe and effective lower eyelid surgery.
