Surgical Skill and Cosmetic Expertise
Dr. Khan’s expertise centers on a refined intersection of functional eye surgery and cosmetic enhancement, with a special focus on oculoplastic procedures that restore both form and comfort. He routinely treats conditions such as ptosis, offering precise eyelid lift surgeries that improve both vision and appearance, and performs blepharoplasty to address drooping or puffy eyelids with natural, rejuvenating results. As an experienced oculoplastic surgeon, he also removes lid lesions and growths with care that minimizes scarring and preserves delicate eyelid anatomy. Dr. Khan is highly skilled in managing blepharospasm using targeted Botox injections, providing relief for patients with uncontrolled eyelid twitching or spasms. His surgical capabilities include lacrimal probing for blocked tear ducts and the excision of pterygiums with attention to long-term ocular surface health. Whether treating functional issues or enhancing facial aesthetics, Dr. Khan brings a careful hand and years of surgical experience to every procedure, prioritizing both visual outcomes and cosmetic balance.

Every procedure, from lacrimal probing to Botox for blepharospasm, demands both surgical accuracy and a deep respect for what patients are experiencing. Restoring function is essential, but equally important is easing discomfort and helping people feel at ease in their daily lives.
