Oculoplastics involves surgery of the face, specializing on the eye sockets, eyelids, and the tear ducts. It is used for cosmetic and medically-necessary purposes. Oculoplastic surgery can enhance a person’s appearance and also improve eye health, eye comfort, and vision. More and more people from around the world are looking to undergo oculoplastic surgery. The first choice for oculoplastic surgery is in India, mainly because of three factors:

  • World-class oculoplastic surgeons – All oculoplastic surgeons in India go through rigorous training and even have an additional 1 or 2 years after they have finished their ophthalmology residency. Most oculoplastic surgeons in India are trained in the country as well as international locations, such as the US. They specialize in eye and face surgery as opposed to plastic surgeons that are more used to surgical procedures for the entire body.
  • World-class clinics – In India, it is no longer a luxury to have a modern and aesthetically-pleasing clinic—it is a necessity. Aside from having state-of-the-art equipment, India is also a champion in excellent customer service. You will be taken care of before, during, and after your surgical procedure.
  • Good prices – Surgical procedures in Western countries tend to be expensive. Indian surgeons are able to offer reasonably-priced procedures.

Due to the high demand of oculoplastic surgery, some doctors perform these procedures even if they are underqualified. Be vigilant in choosing a qualified and licensed oculoplastic surgeon or clinic in India. Be sure to check the qualifications and certifications of the surgeon. It is important to choose someone who is board certified and has been performing surgical procedures for many years. One thing to do is to ask about the doctor’s previous or current patients. This can help you gauge the success of his or her surgical procedures. It is also a good idea to look at before and after photos of patients who have gone through the same surgical procedure, you will undergo.
