About Oculoplasty

Oculoplasty, also known as ophthalmic plastic surgery, is a specialized branch of ophthalmology focused on the reconstruction, repair, and cosmetic enhancement of the structures surrounding the eye. Performed by a skilled ophthalmologist, this procedure addresses issues with the eyelids, tear ducts, eye socket (orbit), and facial structures related to the eye. It combines medical necessity with aesthetic refinement to treat conditions like drooping eyelids (ptosis), eyelid malpositions, orbital fractures, and tear drainage problems. The goal is to restore both the function and appearance of the eye area, improving vision, comfort, and facial symmetry. Modern oculoplasty techniques are minimally invasive, offering precise results with reduced recovery time.
