Eye plastic surgery, called oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery, is a specialized area of eye care that focuses on the areas of the face surrounding the eye. Problems in the eyelids, brow, forehead, cheeks and temples may affect proper function of the eye itself or the appearance of the face.
Our oculoplastic surgeon, Jeffrey Goldstein, M.D., combines the skills of a Board-Certified ophthalmologist with Fellowship training in plastic surgery techniques to diagnose and treat both common and complex problems related to the eyes and surrounding structures. This role includes working with related specialists as a team, when necessary, for the medical, surgical, optical or prosthetic restoration of the tissues and bones surrounding the eye. Dr. Goldstein’s membership in the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons indicates his exceptional training in this field.
