The ASOPRS Foundation Mission Statement

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 with 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.

Do you have a grant proposal for the Board of Trustees to consider? Please complete the online form on this website and submit it electronically to [email protected]. We look forward to reviewing all requests.

TRAVEL GRANTS
The ASOPRS Foundation will happily extend a one-time travel grant to all ASOPRS Fellows. Fellows can use the grant to attend a NON-ASOPRS meeting, skills training, or workshop. (i.e., the funds cannot be used to pay for any travel to or registration for the Fall Symposium or other ASOPRS-provided seminar, webinar, or meeting).
