Specialized Eye and Facial Procedures in a Comfortable Outpatient Setting
At Northgate Surgery Center, we partner with board-certified oculoplastic surgeons who specialize in surgical procedures involving the eyelids, tear ducts, orbit (eye socket), and surrounding facial structures. Oculoplastic surgery combines the precision of ophthalmology with the finesse of plastic surgery—making it essential for both functional and aesthetic concerns.
Whether you’re experiencing drooping eyelids, blocked tear ducts, eye socket trauma, or seeking cosmetic enhancement, Northgate offers a safe, fully accredited outpatient setting where you can receive expert care from experienced specialists.
Common Oculoplastic Procedures Performed at Northgate:
- Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery): Removal of excess skin, fat, or muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids to improve vision or enhance appearance.
- Ptosis Repair: Surgical correction of drooping eyelids that may impair vision or cause eye fatigue.
- Ectropion and Entropion Repair: Correction of eyelids that turn outward (ectropion) or inward (entropion), which can cause irritation, tearing, or damage to the eye.
- Tear Duct Surgery (DCR – Dacryocystorhinostomy): A procedure to treat chronic tearing by creating a new drainage pathway for blocked tear ducts.
- Orbital Fracture Repair: Reconstructive surgery to address trauma to the bones surrounding the eye, often due to injury.
- Chalazion and Lesion Removal: Excision of eyelid lumps, cysts, or tumors for relief and diagnosis.
- Brow Lift (Oculo-Facial): Surgical elevation of the brow to reduce heaviness on the upper eyelids or improve facial symmetry.
