Tearing Eyes (Epiphora)

Excessive tearing, or epiphora, is often due to blocked tear ducts or poor tear drainage from eyelid malposition. It can cause constant irritation, blurred vision, and infection. Dr. Boxrud specializes in diagnosing and surgically correcting the underlying cause, restoring natural tear flow and relieving symptoms. Prompt treatment can greatly improve comfort and eye health.

Eye Socket / Orbital Surgery

Orbital surgery addresses conditions affecting the eye socket, including trauma, tumors, infections, and thyroid eye disease.

Droopy Eyelids (Ptosis)
Learn how ptosis repair lifts drooping lids to enhance vision and eye appearance.
Ptosis occurs when the upper eyelid droops due to muscle weakness, aging, or congenital factors. This can interfere with vision and facial symmetry. Dr. Boxrud performs ptosis repair to elevate the eyelid to its natural position, restoring clear sightlines and a more alert look. Early treatment is key to avoiding long-term visual impairment and cosmetic concerns.

Eyelids Turning In or Out
Learn why eyelids may roll inward (entropion) or outward (ectropion) and what treatments can help.
Eyelids that turn inward (entropion) or outward (ectropion) can cause irritation, redness, tearing, and even damage to the eye's surface. These conditions often develop with age due to weakened eyelid muscles or scarring but may also result from trauma or previous surgeries. Dr. Boxrud offers advanced surgical techniques to restore proper eyelid position, improving both function and comfort. Early evaluation is key to preventing long-term complications and preserving eye health.
