Reconstructive surgery is a specialized field of ophthalmology that focuses on the treatment and reconstruction of delicate structures in the eyelids, eye socket, and tear ducts. The goal of reconstructive surgery is to allow for significant improvement in function, while maintaining a natural and aesthetic appearance. At the clinic of Prof. Guy Ben Simon, an oculoplastics specialist, we offer a variety of advanced treatments that are personalized to the patient's needs, using innovative technologies and a professional approach.
Reconstructive surgery is designed to treat a variety of medical conditions that affect the eye and surrounding areas. These include issues such as blocked tear ducts, fractures in the eye socket due to trauma, drooping eyelids (ptosis), or damage from diseases such as thyroid disease. Reconstructive surgery may also be performed in more complex cases, such as reconstruction after tumor removal or fitting a prosthesis in cases of eye dislocation.
The main goal of reconstructive surgery is to improve the patient’s quality of life by treating functional problems, such as difficulty seeing, excessive tearing, or pain, while ensuring a harmonious aesthetic result. Each treatment is tailored to the patient’s medical condition, taking into account factors such as age, medical history, and personal expectations.
