Oculoplastic Surgery Treatment in India

Vihaan Malhotra, a 42-year-old software architect and father of two, had struggled for years with a drooping left eyelid (ptosis) that worsened with fatigue. Initially a minor asymmetry, it had progressed to the point where it obstructed his superior vision, causing eye strain, headaches, and making driving difficult. He felt self-conscious in meetings, often tilting his head back to see clearly, which led to neck pain. His ophthalmologist diagnosed congenital ptosis that had worsened with age and recommended a ptosis repair surgery to lift the eyelid and restore his visual field. The outpatient procedure, performed under local anesthesia, was precise and took about an hour. Vihaan was anxious but relieved to finally address the issue. Recovery involved mild swelling and bruising for a week, with temporary eye lubrication. Within a month, his vision was dramatically clearer and symmetrical. The emotional burden lifted with the eyelid; he felt a renewed confidence at work and could engage fully with his children without constant physical discomfort. The procedure felt like reclaiming a part of himself he had resigned to losing.
