What is the difference between canthopexy and canthoplasty?

Asked By:Vivid2211 in New York, New York

I can't quite get a clear answer online. Often they seem to be used interchangeably. And when I go on Youtube, there are some videos, but they go into such anatomical detail to the point that I don't really get what's going on. Can someone explain what the difference is - both from a final result perspective and then in terms of what's actually done during the surgery?
