👁️ Ocular Surface, Orbital and Eyelid Disorders: Integrating Structure, Function, and Clinical Care

The Global Ophthalmology & Vision Science Congress (GOVIS 2026) features an advanced session on Ocular Surface, Orbital and Eyelid Disorders, focusing on comprehensive, mechanism-based care for anterior and periocular eye conditions.

📅 October 26–28, 2026
📍 Boston, Massachusetts, USA & Virtual


🔍 Scientific Overview

The ocular surface, eyelids, lacrimal system, and orbit function as an integrated unit. Disorders affecting these structures can significantly impact vision, comfort, and quality of life. This session bridges anatomy, physiology, and clinical decision-making to improve patient outcomes.


🧬 Key Focus Areas:

  • Ocular surface diseases: dry eye, pterygium, conjunctivochalasis
  • Conjunctival tumors: nevi, melanoma, OSSN
  • Ocular allergy and immune-mediated diseases
  • Chemical and thermal injuries
  • Stevens–Johnson syndrome & cicatricial pemphigoid
  • Eyelid malpositions: entropion, ectropion, ptosis
  • Eyelid and periocular tumors
  • Orbital inflammatory disorders and trauma
  • Imaging and diagnostics in orbital pathology

🧠 Translating Science into Practice

This session emphasizes practical, evidence-based care:

✔️ Differentiating neuropathic pain vs dry eye
✔️ Interpreting meibography and corneal topography
✔️ Using biopsy, cultures, and confocal microscopy
✔️ Aligning imaging with treatment decisions


⚙️ Clinical Decision-Making & Management

  • Tear-film stabilization and epithelial repair
  • Immunomodulatory therapies and biologics
  • Surgical interventions: punctal plugs, DCR, reconstruction
  • Management of thyroid eye disease and orbital inflammation

⚠️ Key Clinical Challenges

  • Distinguishing cicatricial disease from allergy
  • Managing ocular surface before refractive/cataract surgery
  • Identifying red-flag conditions (orbital cellulitis, tumors)
  • Contact lens management in irregular corneas
