This textbook provides an overview of minimal complexity “scalpel and suture” surgery with instruction on effective and direct surgical solutions. Interventions that avoid expensive or otherwise unavailable equipment, devices, or pharmaceuticals are highlighted throughout the textbook, for instance, with a focus on autologous grafts in lieu of implants or devices that add cost or complexity. Safe and efficient surgical treatments are featured in each chapter covering a complete spectrum of periorbital conditions.
Efficient Oculofacial Surgery focuses upon safety and ergonomics measures that not only improve the quality of orbit, eyelid, and lacrimal surgeries, but also forestall serious misadventures such as an operating room fires or other iatrogenic patient injuries. In addition, concise tips and surgical pearls that add to the armamentarium of both novice and experienced surgeons are featured at the end of each chapter.
