Purpose:
|
To assess the current pattern of blepharoptosis management among members of Iranian Society of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeries (IrSOPRS).
|
Methods:
|
IrSOPRS members were contacted and invited to participate in the survey. Specific questionnaire were mailed to current IrSOPRS members and asked them to respond and return it. The questionnaire consisted of three sections: demographics, pre-operative evaluations, surgical preferences. Data were extracted anonymously from the filled questionnaires and analyzed.
|

|
Forty-four oculaoplastic surgeons replied. Response rate was 64.7% of the respondents 15 (34.1%) and 13 (29.5) had been in practice in less than 5 years and more than 20 years respectively.
22.7% performed preoperative phenylephrine test and 52.2% levator function assessment. 11.3% performed more than 25 ptosis surgery in the last year. 25.1% performed more than 10 frontalis sling per year. 73.6% used silicone and 23.6% used fascia lata and 22.7% used exclusively silicone material.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the survey studying pre-operative evaluation and ptosis surgery practicing occuloplastics in Iran. This study show interesting points and could be valuable for future residency and fellowship syllabus and continuous medical education programming.
