Oculoplastics

Oculoplastics surgery largely consists of traditional approaches to many of the encountered diseases.  Our specialty has well-established methods for most surgeries and we use our good old fashioned surgical instruments, but advances are continuously being made to improve patient outcomes while at the same time abiding by sound surgical and medical principles according to anatomy.  These advances are made in both surgical and non-surgical approaches to functional and aesthetic Oculoplastics surgery. There has been a lot of excitement in Oculoplastics surgery recently. New surgical techniques, many of which are less invasive, new cosmetic tools with particular utility around the eyes. The aging baby boomer population has increased demand for cosmetic procedures; the ability to work outside the traditional insurance system has added momentum to the interest and curiosity of ophthalmologists.
