Oculoplastic surgery, a subspecialty of ophthalmology that deals with the health of the eyelids, orbit, tear ducts, and other tissues surrounding the eye, is also known as oculofacial or ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery.
Conditions Treated With Oculoplastic Surgery:
Our oculoplastic surgeons treat patients of all ages with a range of disorders, including:
- Ptosis: Drooping of the top eyelid.
- Entropion: When the upper or lower eyelids tilt inward, the skin and eyelashes rub against the eye. Ectropion occurs when the lower eyelid sags and rolls outward, exposing the eyeball.
- Eyelid Growths: Benign or cancerous growths on the eyelid or face.
- Brow Ptosis: Drooping of the eyebrows
- Blepharoptosis: Excess eyelid skin or fat above and below the eyes.
- Obstructed Tear Ducts: Blockage of the tear ducts from birth or caused by accident or sickness, as well as other tear production difficulties
- Tumors: Benign or malignant tumors of the eye, eyelid, or orbit.
- Injuries: Trauma to the eye, eyelids, or orbit.
