    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery

    Background:

    • Ophthalmic plastic surgery is a specialized field within ophthalmology.
    • It focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the eyelids, orbit, and lacrimal systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide an overview of common ophthalmic plastic surgery procedures.
