Eyelid, orbital and socket conditions
At Eyelid Surgery Manchester, we specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide spectrum of delicate conditions affecting the eyelids, eye socket (orbit), tear drainage system, and nearby structures. Whether you are seeking relief from functional issues, reassurance for complex concerns, or refined aesthetic restoration, our expert team offers compassionate, scientifically guided care.
We commonly treat—among others—ptosis (drooping eyelids), malpositioned lids (entropion and ectropion), eyelid lesions or tumours, tear duct obstructions, orbital trauma, and pathology affecting the socket itself.
From simple discomfort to complex reconstructive needs, our approach is personalised and multi-disciplinary. Many treatments are performed safely under local anaesthetic on a same-day basis, minimising disruption to your daily life.
At every step—from evaluation and imaging to treatment and aftercare—you will benefit from our attention to detail, modern surgical technology, and a warm, welcoming environment. Discover expert care tailored to help you see clearly, feel confident, and look your best.
