Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery

Ophthalmic plastic surgery, also known as oculoplastic surgery, focuses on the cosmetic and reconstructive aspects of the eyelids, tear ducts, and surrounding facial areas. This specialized field of ophthalmology addresses issues like droopy eyelids, eye socket fractures, and tear duct obstructions. Surgeons use techniques to improve function, restore appearance, or correct abnormalities while ensuring that they do not affect vision. Procedures can include eyelid lifts, tumor removal, and adjustments after injury. The goal is to enhance both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the eyes and face, ultimately improving quality of life.
