Our oculoplastic surgeons specialize in surgeries that focus on the periorbital and facial tissues, which mainly make up the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit, eyelids, and brow areas. We can also perform reconstructive surgeries, which can improve the state of a patient’s obstructed vision and the improve aesthetic appearance of their eye area. These conditions can be caused by birth defects, medical conditions, trauma, or the natural aging process. Conditions we treat include ptosis, eyelid malposition, eyelid retraction, and many more. Reconstructive oculoplastic surgery can effectively remove the unhealthy or obstructive skin, leaving behind the healthy tissue for a more functional, attractive result.
