Oculoplastic


Oculoplasty encompasses three major areas:

Reconstructive surgery- procedures done to correct deformities (congenital or developmental problems and deformities caused by accidents, infections or other diseases)

Cosmetic or Aesthetic surgery- performed to enhance a person's appearance (minimizing the effects of aging, reshaping and restoring normal body tissues, brow lifts, bulging eyes and facial contouring)

Lacrimal surgery- performed to treat watering of eyes due to blockage of normal passages.
