Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions does oculoplastic surgery treat?

Oculoplastic surgery addresses a wide range of conditions affecting the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit, and surrounding facial structures — including drooping eyelids (ptosis), eyelid tumors, thyroid eye disease, and excessive tearing.

Is oculoplastic surgery cosmetic or medical?

It can be both. Some procedures, like blepharoplasty, may be performed for cosmetic reasons, while others — such as ptosis repair or orbital trauma reconstruction — are medically necessary to restore function or protect vision.

Will I be awake during the procedure?

Most oculoplastic procedures are performed under local anesthesia, meaning you’ll be comfortable and awake but won’t feel pain. More complex cases may require sedation or general anesthesia, which your surgeon will discuss with you in advance.

What is the recovery like?

Recovery varies depending on the procedure. Most patients experience some bruising and swelling that resolves within one to two weeks. Your surgeon will provide specific post-operative instructions tailored to your procedure.

How do I know which oculoplastic procedure is right for me?

A thorough consultation with our oculoplastic specialist will determine the best approach based on your diagnosis, symptoms, and goals. We take time to explain all your options before recommending a treatment plan.
