Painful blind eye – should we enucleate or eviscerate? What would work better in severe ptosis- Silicon or Fascia lata sling? Not just performing the surgery but even the decisions regarding surgery: which one and how, can pose a dilemma. Over the years one learns that, especially in medicine, there may be different solutions and ‘one size may not fit all’! In this course we will debate about some of the common situations we
encounter as oculoplastic surgeons. The Pros and Cons of each technique will be presented by the speakers and the panelists will deliver a verdict after each debate. The issues under consideration are: • Enucleation Vs Evisceration for painful blind eye • Silicon sling Vs Fascia Lata for severe ptosis • Conjunctival approach vs Skin approach for ptosis • External DCR Vs Laser DCR And the verdict is….
