Oculoplastic Surgery in Brussels
Oculoplastic surgery combines aesthetic expertise with functional mastery of the orbital and eyelid region. Dr de Vooght, a member of the European Society for Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ESOPRS), treats the full spectrum of eyelid and orbital pathology — whether aesthetic, functional or reconstructive.
Oculoplastic Indications
- Upper and lower blepharoplasty (aesthetic and functional).
- Eyelid ptosis (drooping upper lid).
- Ectropion and entropion (everted or inverted lower lid).
- Eyelid reconstruction after skin cancer excision (basal cell carcinoma).
- Benign and malignant eyelid tumours.
This specialty at the intersection of plastic surgery and ophthalmology requires close dialogue with ophthalmologists, particularly when visual function or ocular lubrication is involved. Care always includes a complete pre-operative assessment (tear tests, palpebral fissure measurement, standardised photography).
