A book is an incomplete medium for transferring knowledge; words, photographs, and illustrations can never adequately delineate subtle yet discrete details so important in blepharoplasty. From the eastern side of the Pacific Ocean, those of us practicing oculoplasty have strongly felt that pre-existing texts and body of literature have failed us. Faithfully, we have carried out operations as described and have learned of the painful consequence of blindly following the beaten path-not recognizing that we were exploring in an uncharted territory.
The book was prepared from the experiences Dr. Cho have gathered through a small practice in Seoul. There is a limit as to how much a single person’s experience can be considered as a representative experience for others, and he considers his own experiences to be limited as such. Likewise, He does not suggest that a single chapter herein describes a superior version of oculoplasty. He does, however, believes in the philosophy which argues that explicit expressions of opinions become stepping stones for turning ethereal speculations into tangible hypotheses. Through expressing his dimly-lit opinions, the intention has been to solicit a brighter insight from truth-holders. It is his hope that others, whom with a different set of experiences and knowledge, will kindly point out to him the things he could have done better.
