About Me
Dr. Yi Ling Dai is a board-certified, fellowship-trained oculoplastic surgeon focused on restoring function and enhancing appearance for patients with eyelid, tear-duct, and orbital concerns. She provides both reconstructive and cosmetic care, offering options such as eyelid lift (blepharoplasty), BOTOX and dermal fillers, and treatment of styes, chalazia, and tearing problems. Patients value her warm, practical explanations and the way she aligns treatments with each person’s priorities.
