Dr. นพ.ศุภวัฒน์ หงษ์สาคร

นพ.ศุภวัฒน์ หงษ์สาคร (listed with the title Dr.) is an ophthalmologist, meaning a medical eye specialist, who also holds a board certificate in oculoplastic and orbital reconstructive surgery. That subspecialty deals with the eyelids, the skin and fat around the eye and the socket in the skull that houses it, called the orbit. Sikarin Hospital's own doctor listing places him in its Eye Center (ศูนย์จักษุ) at Sikarin Hospital, which is in the Bang Na area of Bangkok. The same listing gives Thai and English as his languages.

A first enquiry can go through our consultation request page. Availability is then checked with the hospital, and no appointment is fixed at the moment you submit.

Where the public record stops. The hospital profile is brief. It names no individual procedures, society memberships, publications, years in practice or case volumes, so this page states none of 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. Our research methodology explains how gaps like these are handled on every profile.

The hospital listing links three qualifications to Mahidol University (Ramathibodi Hospital) in Thailand:

• Doctor of Medicine (แพทยศาสตร์บัณฑิต).
• Board certificate in eye medicine, ophthalmology, awarded in Thailand (วุฒิบัตรจักษุวิทยา).
• Board certificate in oculoplastic and orbital reconstructive surgery (วุฒิบัตรศัลยกรรมตกแต่งและเสริมสร้างเบ้าตา).

No graduation or training years are given, so none appear here. Read plainly, the documented route is medical school, then specialist training in eye medicine, then further board-level training in reconstructive and plastic surgery around the eye. Dates, any overseas fellowships and the precise scope of that training are open questions; put them in your consultation request if they matter to your decision, so you have the answers before booking travel.

One role is documented: ophthalmologist (จักษุแพทย์) in the Eye Center of Sikarin Hospital, marked as current. The source shows no earlier appointments, start date, teaching post or academic title, and we do not infer any. Operation counts and length of practice are also unpublished, so we offer no figure for either.

His documented specialty is oculoplastic surgery within ophthalmology, with the two subspecialty labels ophthalmology and oculoplastic and orbital reconstructive surgery. Because the profile lists no named procedures, we have not attached him to any procedure page as a confirmed service.

General background only. Oculoplastic training in general prepares a surgeon to treat problems of the eyelids and the tissues around them, and those problems can be cosmetic, functional or a mixture of the two. If you are reading up on eyelid surgery, our general guides to blepharoplasty (surgery on the upper or lower lids) and ptosis correction (a low-sitting lid margin, a separate issue from loose skin) set out how each operation works, along with its risks. They explain the operations generally and do not mean he offers either one. Whether he performs a particular operation, and whether it is suitable for you, can only be settled by assessment.

His place in an eye centre is relevant for anyone with existing eye conditions. A careful eyelid assessment normally looks at the health of the eye itself, not just the skin and fat around it.

No procedure list is published, so the opening aim is to learn what he treats regularly and whether that matches what you want. Patients commonly raise these points:

• Which operations for my particular concern does he carry out routinely at Sikarin Hospital?
• Is my problem mainly about appearance, mainly about function (for example, lids that block part of my upper vision), or both?
• How do my eye history, any dry eye, glaucoma or thyroid-related eye problem change the risks for me?
• Which type of anaesthesia is used, and where is the operation carried out?
• What review is needed afterwards, and who sees me if a concern arises once I am back home?

Treat the answers as a real input to your decision on whether to proceed, because suitability always depends on an individual examination.

Sikarin Hospital is in Bang Na, Bangkok, and our research on the hospital confirms its location and its Eye Center. Our research found nothing on an overseas-patient desk, interpreters, transfers or accreditation, so we say nothing about those. His profile lists English, yet we cannot tell you how appointments for overseas patients are handled; that is worth asking the hospital directly, and we can pass the question on. For trip planning, see our guide to Bangkok and the hospital's page at Sikarin Hospital.

A short, organised message helps the first review. Consider including:

• Your own description of what troubles you and the outcome you would like.
• Bright, even photographs of the eye area from the front and each side, with a relaxed expression and eyes open; add one looking upward if the lids are involved.
• Your medical background: earlier eye or lid operations, glaucoma, dry eye, thyroid problems, allergies and the medicines you take, blood thinners in particular.
• Recent eye examination results or your glasses prescription, if you have them.
• The period you could spend in Bangkok, with spare days for follow-up visits.

The team forwards this to the hospital, and the surgeon alone judges what is suitable.
