About Lid Injuring Repair

Lid injury repair is a specialized ophthalmic surgical procedure performed by an ophthalmologist to restore the structure and function of the eyelid following trauma. This delicate surgery addresses lacerations, avulsions, or other damage to the eyelid skin, muscles, and the critical tarsal plate. The primary goals are to protect the eye, ensure proper lid closure to prevent corneal exposure, restore the natural lid contour, and maintain optimal eyelid function for blinking and tear drainage. A precise, layered closure is essential to minimize scarring and preserve both vision and cosmetic appearance. This procedure is crucial for preventing long-term complications like dry eye, corneal ulcers, and eyelid malposition.

PATIENT REVIEW

I'd been to a couple of...

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Karunakaran actually listened. He asked a lot of questions I hadn't been asked before and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on the standard scans. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I had the surgery at MGM last month and feel like myself again.
