About Dr. Shepler

Ophthalmologist & Oculoplastic Surgeon

Dr. Shepler is a board-certified ophthalmologist with fellowship training in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery. He specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive eyelid, orbital, and tear drain procedures.

Fellowship-trained in oculoplastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Shepler brings a rare combination of surgical precision and artistic sensibility to every procedure. He is passionate about restoring both form and function — whether correcting a drooping eyelid that impairs vision, repairing orbital trauma, or helping patients achieve a more refreshed appearance.

Dr. Shepler has been practicing in the Austin area since 2002 and has actively taught students, interns, residents, and fellows throughout central Texas during that time. He was recognized on the Texas Monthly Super Doctors list in 2013, an honor given to the top 5% of physicians in Texas.
