Growth of Mass Behind the Eye Ball

Hi all,

This question for my Grandfather , he is now 74 years old.
He has a repeated medical history of mass growth behind his left eye.
He has earlier been operated for four times.But, unfortunately the Doctor who was operating him
Dr CP Venkatesh (Eye Surgeon,Bangalore) is no more.

After this , we are unable to find a doctor who has handled such a case before.
Please Help ! Please help us to find a doctor who has experience in this field before.

Thanks,
Rashmi

Of course you description is very vague but the branch of ophthalmology that operates within the eye socket (orbit) behind the eye is an oculoplastic surgeon ophthalmologist. Your best bet would be at a medical school, asking a local ophthalmologist for referral. India has very capable ophthalmology and you should be able to find someone.
