This young man had a severe congenital Ptosis with jaw winking. His only concern was the droopy eyelid and not the jaw winking. He also had mild squint (R/L with mild XT) that he didn’t wish to get corrected.

While frontalis based surgery should be the first choice here with a levator action of 5 mm, poor Bell’s; the deep set eyes, and bulky lid-brow made me choose my second option: Supramax levator resection.

The surgery went as planned but he developed lymphoedema. A second minor surgery was needed to debulk more fat which seeped into the eyelid due to prolonged edema.

A sweet, patient and humorous young fellow, he couldn’t stop beaming after the second procedure.

This was a rare situation where it took us few months to get him from the before to the after, instead of few weeks.

The effort paid off. What stood out is the patience he displayed, and how calmly we handled the situation. All is well that ends well. This wonderful boy is truly worthy of the joy he feels!

Every art bleeds into the other.

My patient’s granddaughter wrote me this beautiful letter.

Her grandfather lives in a town few hours from Thane city. A simple man, he came alone for consultation. On day of surgery he brought his son-in-law, who turned out to be an author himself, apart from having served as an Election commissioner.

On the surgery follow up day, we exchanged our respective books.

Her grandpa is doing very well. It’s been 6 months since the surgery and to receive this letter yesterday, on the eve of our 8 th anniversary of OASES!

The blood that flows from the scalpel, and the notes that emanate from the violin’s bow, merge like ink in water on pages.

I wish this little girl, who is an expert at this tender age in advanced yoga, the grit to chase her dreams, and bring them to fruition!

Those of us who love to write, write simply for that: the passion for the art, for words, stories.
Yet at such moments, we are reminded why writing is so important. Why leaving behind stories is so crucial. So long as even one reader is impacted, the writer’s mission is achieved.

Writing is the one of the greatest gift there is, and in my view, it remains the highest of the arts.

Note: my book is fiction. When fiction no longer feels like fiction, the author’s job is splendidly done!! 😁

Eight years of OASES…

It’s the best place I’ve ever worked at in my entire life!! Truth 😊

Over these 8 years we operated operated patients across the length and breath of the country, from kashmir to Kanyakumari; from Baroda to Shillong. We also treated and operated overseas patients from Oman, Germany, USA, UK, Saudi, Yemen.

Heartfelt gratitude to live this childhood dream, and to have the unwavering support of doctors of Thane city, district and beyond, all my friends, seniors and juniors from med school days, esteemed colleagues.

Most crucial being my family, staff, and the patients for trusting the scalpel in my hands.

Our favourite Anesthetists were sorely missed

“Pearls” from the eyelid!

This was the patient with the AVM and phleboliths I had posted on stories last week.

It was a difficult surgery, but with the use of hemostatic sutures it went beautifully and unexpectedly we got three intact phleboliths to the whole operation theatre’s delight!! And the patient’s!

More on her surgery later!

In hindsight, the surgery plan was a way better plan than interventional radiology!! The patient and I both agree on this.

Trauma diaries:

This young man had a terrible accident, and a narrow escape. His facial injuries needed immediate attention.

The dictum of facial trauma surgery is: saving tissues, and realignment of anatomy.

He had significant anterior and some posterior lamellar scarring in his right eyelid during the healing phase, leading to incomplete closure of eyelid. A single 5-FU injection sorted that and we have avoided need for a skin graft.

There is a need for a posterior lamellar graft though, as some of the upper eyelid lashes have inturned. But this is not bothering him currently, and has been planned at a later stage, whenever he feels ready for it.

The upper cheek/lower eyelid hyper-pigmented (darkened) skin areas can also be managed with surgery if it stays the same in few months.

Patient is delighted, so is my team! A new lease on life, he is a renewed man!

Cancer awareness, eyelid cancer

Sebaceous gland cancer of the eyelid for this elderly gentleman in his eighties was operated under local anesthesia. A little over half of his upper eyelid was excised, leading to a significant defect.

Frozen section was done to confirm clear margins by pathologist, following which reconstructive surgery was done for the eyelid defect.

Cutler-Beard stage 1 was done for the defect. In six weeks the flap will be divided and the patient will have a new cancer-free eyelid.

(In layman terms:
Eyelid tumor is cut off using no-touch method, ie tumor part is untouched during surgery to prevent contamination. Next the tissue margins are checked by pathologist to confirm if entire cancer is removed. The margins are treated with cryotherapy, which is essentially liquid nitrogen induced cooling of tissues to kill off any residual rare cancer cells that may have spread. Next lower eyelid tissues were used here to reconstruct a new upper eyelid.)

We acquired a new endoscopic unit at OASES Care Center recently.

We performed an external DCR (revision DCR of a failed endoscopic dcr done elsewhere) yesterday, and used the endoscope for guidance in nasal mucosal anesthesia. Biggest advantage of this injection, patient is pain-free during osteotomy, and there is no additional need for intravenous painkillers or sedation.

Further more, we have been using buried sutures for all our patients, taking away the need for suture removal. The last photo shows the patient’s wound on first post surgery day.

The scar heals cosmetically well.

The patient recovery and comfort from this surgery has become easier and enhanced, and post surgery visits needed are also minimal.

We can’t wait to explore the range of procedures we can do using this endoscope!

Eyelid lesions, are best excised, if they are growing in size, cause discomfort or develop features of grave pathology, or lead to cosmetic concern.

Abnormal lesions around the eyelids are always best removed, well in advance.

The featured patient had issues with watering in the eye, as well as recent growth in the long standing eyelid mass.

The mass was excised, and the eyelid tightened to solve the problem of eyelid laxity at same surgery site.

He was relieved of all his ocular discomfort with the surgery.

The lesion was benign and didn’t need any further treatment.

✨ Restoring Confidence with Cosmetic Eye Rehabilitation ✨

A disfigured blind eye can deeply impact a person’s confidence and quality of life. This patient underwent evisceration with an orbital implant, creating a stable foundation for a beautifully customized prosthetic eye.

Six weeks later, a skilled ocularist carefully painted and fitted the prosthesis, blending it seamlessly with the natural eye. The result? A lifelike appearance that restores symmetry, expression, and self-assurance.

Cosmetic rehabilitation isn’t just about looks—it’s about renewed confidence and emotional well-being.

Rituals.

As surgeons, we have set protocols, procedures in the operating room, as also in the before and after surgery arenas.

What differs is our individual preferences in doing certain things, rather our obsessions and little eccentricities.

I knew of one surgeon who would only wash her hands at a certain pipe in the hand wash area, and await patiently if she found it occupied, ignoring all other areas which were freely available for hand wash. I know of another surgeon who starts his OT with a right sided surgery.

As for me, I do not have any superstitious beliefs (I hope), but some parts are non-negotiable for me ever since I was a student, and I continue these till date.

One of suture removal: I prefer removing sutures of my patients myself, I try at least most of the time.

The other is preparing the local anesthesia solution: this is a ritual I like to do with zero disturbance and preferably alone. I enter the OT early before any staff enters, and prepare the local anesthesia combination and syringes to keep them ready for the day. This is a grounding exercise and one of mindfulness before the day’s surgeries begin.

I also avoid meeting anyone and talking before surgery, this includes ensuring complete and enough communication in the OPD with patients and relatives on previous days, so I can stay in my zone on surgery day.

What are your rituals, as a surgeon or for your place of work?

Cosmetic rehabilitation of blind eye

This young man had a terrible accident years ago, that left him with multiple untreated facial fractures and a blind eye. The patient was given a choice of undergoing socket surgery alone versus treating the orbital floor fracture in same sitting. We decided to go for first option, as Evisceration can be done under local anesthesia and has a quicker recovery. And there always is an option to manage the fracture in a second stage if needed.

The eye was deformed and had to be removed in surgery, and was replaced with an implant made of PMMA.

The prosthetic eye was placed by Ocularist Vimal Mehra after 7 weeks. The prosthetic eye showed good motility as shown in video. With the prosthetic eye, one can expect around 30-50% motility.

While the eye is still enophthalmic, it is not very evident, and this is an example of a situation wherein a simpler, logistically easier, financially lighter option was chosen over a complex surgery under general anesthesia, and the results say it all.

The patient is elated and plans not to chase the facial and orbital fractures.

In one eyed patients, protective glasses are a must for daily use, and regular eye examinations for the seeing eye.
