WHAT IS THE ASOPRS FOUNDATION?The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstruction Surgery Foundation was established in 1999 as the philanthropic arm of the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS). The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery was founded in 1969 to establish a qualified body of surgeons who have training and experience in this highly specialized field. The purpose of the Society is to advance training, research, and patient care in the fields of aesthetic, plastic, and reconstructive surgery of the eyelids, tear system, orbit, and face. The ASOPRS Foundation is dedicated to ongoing education, humanitarian projects, and research in the field of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, locally, nationally, and internationally in harmony with the ASOPRS mission.

Thank you for Your Support! The ASOPRS Foundation is pleased to report that we participate each year in #GivingTuesday, a global day of unity and giving. GivingTuesday for 2022 is November 29, 2022. Won't you join us on this day?
The 20th Anniversary Year of the ASOPRS Foundation. You have heard quite a lot about our celebratory activities throughout this year. It isn't over yet! While we had hoped to have a major presence at both the Spring and Fall Meetings for 2021, COVID-19 has had an impact on our celebrations. We do honor our founders, acknowledge our high donors, and thank all of our members for your support and loyalty and had hoped to do so at an appreciation reception at the Fall Meeting. This did not occur in the Fall of 2021, so we will extend our anniversary celebration in 2022.
Please show your support for the ASOPRS Foundation.
FUNDING OF THE FOUNDATION COMES SOLELY THROUGH CHARITABLE GIFTS RECEIVED FROM PHYSICIAN MEMBERS, INDUSTRY, GRATEFUL PATIENTS, AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC. The IRS recognizes the ASOPRS Foundation as a 501(c)3 organization. Welcome our Newest ASOPRS Members!
