This is also called tympanic membrane perforation. We see many patients who have ruptured their eardrums due to introducing some foreign object inside their ears, or due to injury, infection, or sudden change in air pressure. You could have a perforated eardrum if you experience the following symptoms:

This is a surgery performed using a long thin tube with a lens and instruments attached at one end, called an endoscope to repair a crooked or deviated septum. With the help of the endoscope, we can correct a deviated septum without making incisions on your face.

The ear being such a small organ, it becomes difficult for us to see inside it properly. However, a surgical microscope provides a clear, enlarged view of all the internal structures clearly, and helps us to operate within the ear with precision. At our clinic we have the latest and most powerful lens that enables us to detect and treat a number of ear problems.

This is a surgery performed to rectify blocked or narrowed tear drainage tubes( Nasolacrimal duct); these tubes start from the inner corner of your eye and go into the nose through the tear sac. This operation creates a new passage between the tear sac and the nose – akin to a bypass. Any blockage below the tear sac will not hinder the normal flow and drain of tears. It is often performed by an eye specialist and an ENT surgeon together. It is a minimally invasive surgery, as a long thin tube with a lens and instruments attached at the end, is used, and no cuts are made on the face.

This is a surgery performed using a long, thin, tube with a camera attached at the end (endoscope) to detect problems in the sinuses. It becomes easier to detect disorders or remove diseased tissue. The surgeon can also open the sinuses (balloon sinuplasty) so that the flow of mucus and its drainage becomes smooth.

Children are highly prone to infections and disorders of the ear, nose and throat. One reason is that their immune system is not fully developed, making them more vulnerable to infections and allergies. Another reason is that the structures inside the ear, nose, and throat of children is not completely developed either, and hence may not function properly.
