About Me
Dr. John Paul Luckett III is an oculoplastic surgeon specializing in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the eyelids, orbit, and tear drainage system. He enjoys partnering with patients to address functional concerns—like tearing, eyelid malposition, or the effects of thyroid eye disease—while also paying close attention to aesthetics and natural-looking results. Consultations with Dr. Luckett are thorough and reassuring, with a strong emphasis on safety, realistic expectations, and recovery planning.
At Eye Medical Center in Baton Rouge, Dr. Luckett’s practice includes eyelid surgery, management of eyelid skin cancers, orbital and lacrimal (tearing) surgery, and care for thyroid eye disease. He earned his medical degree from LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans, completed ophthalmology residency at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (serving as Chief Resident), and advanced fellowship training in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery with the American Society of Oculoplastic and Reconstructive Surgeons in Birmingham. Dr. Luckett works closely with multidisciplinary teams to restore comfort, function, and confidence for each patient.
