Dr. John Burroughs practices cosmetic & reconstructive plastic surgery of the eyelids and face. He just received notification that his publication, “Three Adult Cases of Orbital Hidrocystoma Presenting with Blepharoptosis” was just published and is available for online viewing. The shortened version is that orbital cysts can cause drooping of the eyelid, and the finding of hidrocystoma cysts within the orbit is generally rare especially when presenting in adults. He was very pleased to collaborate with his international surgeon co-authors from Brazil, who also had 2 cases to add to the series. Definitely a challenge with the language barrier to get this project finished, but he is pleased to add information on this rare entity to the medical literature.
Dr. John Burroughs specializes in eyelids, orbits, and faces and has performed over 20,000 related procedures. His role in oculofacial plastic surgeries has been highly appreciated.
He is an alumnus of the Air Academy High School, University of Texas, and Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (F. Edward Hebert School of Medicine), Maryland. He later followed a transitional internship and ophthalmology residency in San Antonio, TX, and has decades of aesthetic treatment experience.
Dr. Burroughs is American Board of Ophthalmology-certified and is a Fellow of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic Reconstructive Surgeons and the American Academy of Ophthalmology and a member of many other associations. He is a lifelong learner and teacher.
