Will insurance cover the cost of upper eyelid surgery?
Insurance will cover upper eyelid surgery if: (1) you notice the eyelids blocking your vision, and (2) this shows on a photograph, and (3) your lids show enough loss of vision on a visual field testing, and (4) The visual fields and photos meet your insurance company’s specific criteria. We will submit this information to your insurance company for predetermination if we feel you meet reasonable criteria. During your consultation, Dr. Khan can determine whether or not it is worthwhile obtaining testing for insurance coverage. Insurance will not cover puffy or wrinkled lower eyelids.

Which techniques are used?

Upper eyelid surgery usually includes removal of skin and puffy fat.  Some patients may also require repair of deeper tendons, drooping eyebrows, or eyebrow fat pads.  Lower eyelids may require just fat removal through hidden incisions as well as tightening of lower eyelid margin and skin by laser or traditional methods.
