About Me
Kevin Heinze, MD, is an oculoplastic and reconstructive surgeon who cares for conditions affecting the eyelids, orbit, and tear drainage system. He treats concerns ranging from eyelid lesions and skin cancers to ptosis, eyelid malpositions, and thyroid eye disease, and performs functional and cosmetic eyelid surgery. Dr. Heinze also manages orbital tumors and fractures and offers in-office procedures for tear duct problems and minor eyelid issues when appropriate. Patients appreciate his calm, collaborative style and clear explanations of both surgical and nonsurgical options.
Dr. Heinze completed ophthalmology residency at the University of Illinois Chicago followed by a two-year, ASOPRS-accredited fellowship in oculoplastic surgery at the Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary. He earned his MD at the University of Michigan, where he also completed his undergraduate studies. His approach emphasizes restoring comfort, function, and natural appearance while keeping recovery practical for each person’s life. He partners closely with dermatology, ENT, and oncology colleagues when care spans multiple specialties so patients receive seamless, team-based treatment.
