Oculoplastic surgeries are performed to:
- Treat Eyelid Abnormalities: Correct drooping eyelids (ptosis), eyelid tumors, and other eyelid deformities.
- Improve Eyelid Aesthetics: Enhance the appearance of the eyelids through procedures like blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery).
- Restore Orbital Function: Repair orbital fractures, remove orbital tumors, and treat conditions like proptosis (bulging eye).
- Manage Lacrimal System Disorders: Address tear duct blockages, excessive tearing, and dry eye syndrome.
