Oculoplastic and Cosmetic

Sweeney Eye Associates understands that the eyes are more than just windows to the soul; they are also an important aspect of an individual’s appearance and expression. Oculoplastic surgery, a specialist area that combines ophthalmology with plastic surgery, provides revolutionary treatments for a wide range of aesthetic and functional eye issues. Dr. Mark Jaffe, our oculoplastic surgeon at Sweeney Eye Associates, combines his artistic vision and medical knowledge to assist patients in achieving their desired appearance while retaining their inherent beauty.

What is Oculoplastic Surgery?

Oculoplastic surgery focuses on the structures surrounding the eyes, such as the eyelids, tear ducts, and orbit (the bony chamber around the eye). This specialized specialty of surgery meets both cosmetic and reconstructive demands, improving the appearance and function of the eyes.

How to Address Common Concerns Oculoplastic Surgery

Hooded Eyes

Hooded eyes, which are characterized by extra skin folding over the natural crease of the eyelid, can give the appearance of tiredness or aging. Dr. Jaffe eliminates extra skin using precise surgical procedures, resulting in a more open and youthful appearance. This technique not only improves cosmetics but also restores vision that has been blocked by drooping eyelids.

Droopy Eyelids (Ptosis)

Ptosis, or drooping eyelids, is when the top eyelid falls over the eye, potentially compromising eyesight. Ptosis correction can be used to raise the eyelid to restore functionality and a new appearance. This operation is especially beneficial for people who are experiencing vision problems as a result of sagging eyelids. Watch the video below to learn more about how ptosis is treated:

Under-Eye Bags

Under-eye bags are a prevalent problem, which can be caused by aging, genetics, or lifestyle habits. These bags might give off a tired and old appearance. Dr. Jaffe’s skill in lower eyelid surgery allows him to remove or rearrange fat, leaving the under-eye area smoother and more youthful. This surgery can dramatically improve your overall facial appearance.

Facial Asymmetry

Facial asymmetry, whether hereditary or caused by aging, can undermine one’s confidence. Dr. Jaffe uses innovative surgical procedures to correct asymmetry near the eyes, resulting in a balanced and harmonious facial appearance. His thorough approach produces natural-looking outcomes that improve facial symmetry.
