In this research, we discuss the current situation of orbital and plastic surgery in Taiwan. The Taiwan Medical Association gathered information from the Bureau of National Health Insurance of Taiwan, the Taiwan Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Society Bulletin, and the Statistics Yearbook of Practising Physicians and Health Care Organisations in Taiwan. We discovered that 5.8% of Taiwan's 1621 ophthalmologists—94 of whom were oculoplastic surgeons—were eye doctors. Most ophthalmologists receive their fellowship training abroad or in Taiwan, however others do so as well. All ophthalmologists were competent surgeons with extensive training in oculoplastic procedures. Compared to Medicare payments in the United States, our National Health Insurance offers comparatively low payment rates for oculoplastic and orbital procedures.
