Oculoplastics
At Krieger Eye Institute, we understand that the health and appearance of your eyes are not just about vision—they're about how you see the world and how the world sees you. Our Oculoplastics service is dedicated to providing comprehensive care for a variety of conditions that affect the eyelids, tear ducts, and orbit, which is the bony structure around the eye.
What is Oculoplastics?
Oculoplastics, or ophthalmic plastic surgery, refers to a wide range of surgical procedures that deal with the orbit (eye socket), eyelids, tear ducts, and the face. It also includes reconstructive surgery of the eye and associated structures.
