Conjunctival flap surgery effectively treats ocular surface disorders, offering clinical improvement and good cosmetic results with a low complication rate. This underutilized technique is a valuable alternative to more invasive procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Ocular surface disorders can significantly impact vision and quality of life.
  • Effective treatment options are crucial for managing complex eye conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of conjunctival flap surgery for various ocular surface disorders.
  • To assess the indications and complications associated with this surgical technique.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 31 patients who underwent conjunctival flap surgery over a 5-year period.
  • Review of surgical indications, including tectonic, analgesic, and aesthetic reasons.
  • Assessment of clinical improvement and post-operative complications.

Main Results:

  • Conjunctival flap surgery demonstrated clinical improvement in all patients, with reduced pain, inflammation, or improved aesthetics.
  • The primary indications were tectonic (48.4%), analgesic (29.0%), and aesthetic (22.6%).
  • Complications occurred in 19.4% of cases, with 6.5% requiring surgical revision.

Conclusions:

  • Conjunctival flap surgery is an effective, albeit underutilized, treatment for ocular surface disorders, particularly in eyes with poor visual potential.
  • It offers a viable alternative to more extensive surgical interventions.
  • The technique provides significant clinical and cosmetic benefits with manageable complication rates.
