Oculoplasty - Ophthalmic

Oculoplasty - Ophthalmic Plasty Oncology and Reconstructive Services

Oculoplastic surgery is the cosmetic, corrective, and reconstructive surgery of the eye. It manages and repairs problems primarily related to the tissues or structures surrounding the eye, rather than the eyeball itself. These structures include the eyelids, the tear ducts, and the orbit (bony socket surrounding the eye).Ophthalmic plastic surgeons are board-certified ophthalmologists who have completed several years of additional, highly specialized training in plastic surgery. These procedures include repair of droopy eyelids, repair of tear duct obstructions, orbital fracture repairs, and removal of tumors in and around the eyes. Oculoplastic procedures frequently have both functional and aesthetic purposes.
