Occuloplastics

Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery

Ophthalmic plastic surgery is a subspecialty of ophthalmology that deals with cosmetic, plastic, and reconstructive surgery of the eyelids, eyebrows, forehead, face and cheeks, tear duct system, and sockets. Ophthalmic plastic surgeons are ophthalmologists who, after completing extensive training as eye physicians and surgeons, undergo formal post-residency training in plastic surgery.

Dr. John D. Siddens has performed approximately 15000 surgeries. He is the only surgeon in Upstate SC, western NC, and northeastern GA who specializes exclusively in ophthalmic plastic surgery.
