About Us 

The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery is dedicated to education, research, and the quality of clinical practice in oculofacial plastic surgery. Founded in 1969, ASOPRS has almost 1,000 members in the US, Canada and over 30 other countries around the world who are dedicated to facial rejuvenation and disorders of the eyelids, eye socket, and tear drainage system. 

To advance our mission, the Society publishes the scientific journal, Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, hosts an annual members-only spring conference, and every autumn, sponsors the largest international meeting dedicated to oculofacial plastic surgery in the world.

ASOPRS is a professional membership society, providing resources, education, and a community for oculofacial plastic surgeons. ASOPRS is not a certifying or accrediting body. 

Fellow membership in ASOPRS requires that the individual be highly trained in oculofacial plastic surgery, have an unrestricted license to practice medicine or appropriate authorization to practice, and be certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology or The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (or equivalent, if the Fellow has moved outside the US or Canada). The majority of Fellow members reside and practice in the United States or Canada.
