Dr. พญ.ณัษฐา จองพิศาล

Dr. ณัษฐา จองพิศาล (Thai: พญ.ณัษฐา จองพิศาล) is a female ophthalmologist who works in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery, a niche of eye surgery concerned with the lids, tear ducts and bony socket around the eye. She is listed as an ophthalmologist (จักษุแพทย์) in the Eye Centre of Sikarin Hospital, a private hospital whose address is 976 La Salle Road, Bangkok 10260. Her profile on the hospital's own website is the source of the facts on this page.

Two points about the record are worth knowing. The hospital publishes her name in Thai only, so this page uses the Thai name exactly as published and does not invent an English spelling. And the hospital page names oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery as her area of interest but gives no operation list. We therefore make no claim that she carries out any particular operation; the source is silent.

If you are considering eyelid or periocular surgery in Bangkok, this profile sets out what is documented about her training and where she practises, and the sections below explain what to clarify in a consultation. Send your questions through the consultation request form; our team relays them to Sikarin and tells you what the hospital says.

The hospital profile lists the following training, in order from medical school to subspecialty:

• Medical degree (MD), Mahidol University, Thailand.
• Certificate in clinical medical science, ophthalmology, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand.
• Ophthalmology board certificate (วุฒิบัตรจักษุวิทยา), Chulalongkorn University, Thailand.
• Oculoplastic and reconstructive subspecialty training, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Thailand.
• Clinical fellow in oculoplastic and orbit surgery, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

In plain terms, this is a pathway of general medical training, then specialist ophthalmology training and board certification, then two further periods of focused training in oculoplastic and orbital surgery, one in Thailand and one in the Netherlands. The profile does not give years for any of these steps, so we do not state them.

The licence can be looked up on the Medical Council of Thailand's public register at checkmd.tmc.or.th, and our patient team can help you confirm it before you travel. Patients who want to verify credentials independently can ask the patient team to request this information from the hospital before a consultation.

The only current role documented in our research is her position as an ophthalmologist in the Eye Centre at Sikarin Hospital Bangkok. A workplace listing on a university hospital's website suggested she may also have a role at another hospital, which we have not recorded. If a second affiliation matters to your plans, ask the patient team to confirm where she currently sees patients.

No years of experience, case volumes, awards or publications are documented in the sources we used, and none are claimed here.

Her documented area of interest is oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery. This is a recognised subspecialty of ophthalmology. In general, oculoplastic surgeons assess and treat problems of the eyelids, the tear drainage system, the tissues surrounding the eye and the eye socket, and they work on both functional problems and appearance.

Where the record stops. Her hospital page never names an individual operation, so our research ties her to no procedure page. The topics below are general information for patients exploring eyelid-area surgery, and each is a question to put to her team rather than a statement that she offers it.

Eyelid surgery. In general, blepharoplasty removes excess eyelid skin and sometimes fat. The upper-lid version addresses hooding, the lower-lid version addresses under-eye bags, and double eyelid surgery creates an upper eyelid crease. Background is on our overview pages: blepharoplasty, upper and lower lid variants, and double eyelid surgery.

Drooping eyelid (ptosis). A drooping lid margin is a different problem from loose skin and usually needs repair of the lid-lifting muscle. See ptosis correction for background. Because ptosis affects how the lid works, an assessment by an eye specialist is often part of planning, and ophthalmology is her specialty.

Brow position. When the eyebrow itself has dropped, a brow lift may be discussed alongside or instead of eyelid surgery.

Whether she performs any of these, and how often, is something to confirm in writing through the patient team before you travel.

In general, a consultation for eyelid or periocular concerns covers your goals, your eye health history and what is realistic. Questions that are usually worth raising:

• Which problem is actually causing the concern: excess skin, fat, a low eyelid margin, a descended brow, or a combination.
• Whether an eye examination is needed first. Existing eye conditions can change both safety and the plan; our blepharoplasty overview lists the ones surgeons usually screen for.
• Which operation, if any, is recommended, and which technique and anaesthesia would be used.
• What recovery looks like and how long you should stay in Thailand. Our blepharoplasty overview gives 5–7 days as the usual time in Thailand for eyelid surgery, because stitches are commonly removed at around that point; your own plan will depend on the operation and on her advice.
• What the possible risks are, such as dry or irritated eyes, asymmetry, scarring and temporary blurred vision, and what follow-up is available after you return home.
• Who to contact if you have concerns after you leave.

Because she is an ophthalmologist, it is reasonable to expect eye health to be part of the conversation. Do not assume it will be; ask.

Her hospital profile lists Thai and English as her languages. Sikarin Hospital is in the Bang Na district of Bangkok. We did not find a documented international patient desk, interpreter service or airport transfer on the hospital pages we reviewed, so we do not state that any exist. Please have these arrangements confirmed for your dates before you commit.

For general guidance on travelling for surgery, including how long to plan to stay and what to arrange before you fly, see our Bangkok city guide and our provider research methodology, which explains how facts on this page were checked.

Preparing information makes an early assessment more useful. In general, for an eyelid or periocular concern, patients are asked for:

• Bright, clear photos taken straight-on and from each side, eyes open and looking ahead, no make-up or glasses, and one more with the eyes shut.
• A short description of what bothers you and whether it affects your vision or comfort.
• Any past eye surgery, eyelid or facial procedures, injuries or botulinum toxin or filler treatment around the eyes.
• Any eye diagnoses you already have (for example dry eye, glaucoma, thyroid-related eye changes or double vision), plus recent eye test results or a prescription.
• Medications, supplements, allergies and other health conditions.
• Your likely travel window plus how long you could stay.

If the surgeon wants anything further, you will hear from the team.
