What We Do

My practice provides a range of medical and surgical services. Foremost, my practice has a focus on evaluation and treatment of disorders involving the structures around the eyes, the upper face, eyelids, brows, tear drainage system, orbits and structures within the orbits (‘eye sockets”) as well as the nerve pathways of the brain affecting the visual system.

I also provide care for general ophthalmology-related problems that are of interest to me and that complement my other practice activities.

Among the problems I treat:

  • Drooping eyelids (ptosis) from age-related causes and from other causes
  • Drooping brows
  • Excessive skin and baggy eyelid deformities
  • Ectropion of the eyelids
  • Entropion of the eyelids
  • Full-scope management of cancers and non-cancerous tumors involving the eyelids and structures around the eyes, orbits and middle face
  • Treatments of scars and other deformities of the eyelids
  • Disorders of vision related to thyroid disease and other diseases affecting tissues of the orbits
  • Reconstructive surgery of ocular structures and of the orbits
  • Repairs of fractures of the orbits after trauma
  • Correction of scars and other cosmetic deformities of the eyelids and structures affecting the eyelids and eyes
  • Correction of excessive tearing from deficient tear drainage
  • Surgical and non-surgical treatment of paralyzed eyelids
  • Removal of benign eyelid lesions
  • Removal of bothersome and mis-directed eyelashes
  • Evaluation of neurological conditions causing visual disturbances, vision loss and double vision
  • Evaluation of surgeries done elsewhere for possible revision procedures
  • Second opinions
