What Are Oculoplastics?
Oculoplastic surgery is a type of procedure that’s performed on the area around the eyes, but not on the eye itself. It can be done either to correct a medical problem or simply for cosmetic purposes. While our optometrists don’t personally perform surgery, we work with the area’s best ophthalmologists in the office to give our patients the results they deserve. As your committed lifetime eye care partners, we’ll make sure your oculoplastic surgeon understands your vision and eye health as well as we do!
Reconstructive Surgeries
A trained ophthalmologist can help correct any issues you may have with the structure of the facial bones around the eyes. Oculoplastic reconstructive surgeries can include orbital fractures, eyelid lesions, and drooping eyelids or brows.
Injectable and Filler Procedures
Injectables like BOTOX® Cosmetic, smooth out wrinkles for a more youthful appearance by temporarily freezing muscles, preventing the formation of new lines and wrinkles from deepening. Whereas, injectable dermal fillers, like JUVÉDERM®, instead restore age-related volume loss under the skin for a refreshed look.
Eye Lifts
A blepharoplasty, also known as an eye lift, is a procedure where excess skin around the upper and lower parts of the eye is removed. This procedure is not always strictly cosmetic and can also be used to correct vision issues, like ptosis or hereditary issues.
Tumor Removal
We can also connect patients with oculoplastic experts in the office who can perform biopsies of growths around the eye and remove the problematic tumors if they find any. Using their expertise, they’ll determine if a growth needs to be removed, since even a benign tumor can still impact your vision and eye functions.
