we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the structures surrounding the eye. Our team is committed to providing the highest level of care for patients with both functional and aesthetic concerns.
What is Oculoplastics and Orbit Surgery?
Oculoplastics and orbit surgery are sub-specialties of ophthalmology that deal with the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit, and surrounding facial structures. This field encompasses a broad range of procedures, from reconstructive surgeries following injury or trauma to cosmetic treatments to improve the appearance of the eye area.
Conditions Treated
Our team is experienced in treating a wide range of conditions, including:
- Eyelid malpositions: Drooping or sagging eyelids, eyelids that turn in or out, or eyelids that do not close properly can cause discomfort and vision problems.
- Tumors: Both benign and malignant tumors can develop in the structures surrounding the eye and may require surgical removal.
- Orbital fractures: A fracture of the bones surrounding the eye can cause double vision, swelling, and eye movement problems.
- Thyroid eye disease: This autoimmune disorder can cause eye bulging, eyelid retraction, and double vision.
- Tear duct problems: Blocked tear ducts can cause excessive tearing, eye infections, and eye irritation.
Treatments Offered
Our team offers a wide range of treatments to address the diverse needs of our patients, including:
- Eyelid surgery: Procedures to correct eyelid malpositions, remove excess skin, or repair damage caused by injury or disease.
- Orbital surgery: Surgery to repair fractures or remove tumors in the bony structures surrounding the eye.
- Tear duct surgery: Procedures to open or repair blocked tear ducts to improve tear drainage.
- Cosmetic procedures: Treatments such as Botox injections or dermal fillers to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging around the eyes.
