The eyelids- seemingly simple structures- play a vital role in the complex functioning of the human body. Our very lives depend, directly or indirectly, on our eyes. In fact, nearly 80% of the information we receive about the world comes through vision. Two healthy eyes are thus essential for a meaningful and active life. Yet in our society, due to poverty, ignorance, and negligence, eye diseases and complications are alarmingly on the rise. From the womb to old age, the eyes deserve vigilant care, timely treatment, and informed attention. With this awareness in mind, renowned ophthalmologist Dr. Bijuli Goswami has written a series of accessible, informative articles on eye health and the eyelids, aimed at the general public. Aamar Chokujuri brings together several of these important pieces in one comprehensive volume.
