This is how your visit to the Oculoplastics Frankfurt proceeds
Since ophthalmological diagnoses often have a high degree of complexity, patients who visit the practice for oculoplastics in Frankfurt often have a long way to go. For example, lacrimal problems such as lacrimation are often misdiagnosed as an allergic reaction. It is therefore all the more important for the specialists at Oculoplastics Frankfurt to understand you and your problems precisely and to offer you a treatment that is tailored exactly to your complaints or aesthetic wishes. Accordingly, in the practice for oculoplastics in Frankfurt, you will find modern diagnostics and competent specialists who can take care of your problems and wishes and offer a variety of treatments:
Plastic reconstructive procedures
The human visual system is complex as well as sensitive. Even minor changes or damage can have a significant impact on vision. At the same time, the eye area also significantly determines how we are perceived. Diseases or damage here often not only have functional implications, but also have an aesthetic impact.
Plastic reconstructive procedures repair damaged structures in the periocular area and restore the natural appearance. Surgeons at Oculoplastics Frankfurt use such procedures, for example, in the treatment of ptosis. This is a condition characterized by drooping of the upper eyelid. This not only leads to an asymmetrical appearance, but also restricts vision. This is treated in the practice for oculoplastics in Frankfurt by the so-called blepharoplasty - excess tissue and skin is removed, while the muscle responsible for lifting the eyelid (levator muscle) is tightened or repositioned. Another focus of treatment is the treatment of entropion or ectropion. The latter is characterized by an outward turning of the eyelid, while in the former the eyelid is turned inward. In the case of ectropion, the tear fluid cannot be properly distributed over the eye - as a result, irritation and dryness occur. In the case of entropion, the inward sweeping of the eyelid causes mechanical irritation of the eye, which can damage it. The treatment is carried out in the practice for oculoplastics in Frankfurt via a surgical procedure, whereby the eyelid structures are tightened and excess skin and/or muscle tissue is removed.
Lacrimal duct surgery
Injuries to the lacrimal duct can be caused by diseases,injuries, tumors or as a complication after surgery and can cause a variety of problems. One of the most common lacrimal disorders is lacrimal duct stenosis, in which the tears cannot drain due to a blockage of the tear duct. In most cases, if a blockage occurs, your practitioner:s will perform a dacryocystorhinostomy(DCR), in which a new channel is created between the lacrimal sac and the nose. In external DCR, a small skin incision is made on the nose. In endonasal DCR, the flow of tears is restored through the nasal cavity using an endoscope. Since no incision is needed here, this method is considered gentler and is usually preferred. If the tear duct is injured, the specialists at Oculoplastics Frankfurt can reconstruct it by means of canalicular intubation, in which a silicone tube is inserted.
Cosmetic procedures
If desired, your oculoplastics surgeon in Frankfurt can also treat you cosmetically. Here, among other things, methods of cosmetic surgery Frankfurt are used to give your eyes a rejuvenating treatment. The specialists use, among other things, aesthetic blepharoplasty, where excess tissue is removed to refresh the appearance of the eyes. An eyebrow lift is also available - this lifts and tightens the skin around your eyebrows, giving you a more youthful appearance. Botox and fillers are another way to give a more youthful appearance.
