Upper Eyelid Surgery is Often Covered by Insurance

Upper eyelid surgery, also known as upper blepharoplasty, is the specialty of Dr. Schiedler at Oasis Eye Face and Skin. As she was becoming a board-certified oculofacial eye surgeon, she attended the top programs around the country and is the only eye surgeon in the area that you should trust with this life-changing surgery.

Droopy upper eyes can be common as we age, but that doesn’t mean you have to “just deal with it”—especially if it’s affecting your vision. There is a certain type of upper eye sagginess, ptosis, which is considered a medical condition because it can impair vision. If you are considering upper eyelid surgery and your vision is affected, there is a good chance that upper blepharoplasty may be covered by your insurance.

How Upper Eyelid Surgery is Performed

Whether your procedure is medical or aesthetic, you deserve only the best eye specialist. The procedure itself is quick and performed on an outpatient basis. Upper eyelids are usually lifted by creating very small incisions that can be hidden in the crease of the eyelids (in the case of ptosis, there are a few approaches that may work best for you). During your consultation, you will learn everything you need to know about the best blepharoplasty approach for you and your goals.

Both skin and fatty deposits may be removed during the procedure. Tiny sutures are used which are discrete and minimize any redness during recovery. Any time you’re considering an eye treatment, the eye surgeon’s skill and delicate handling is critical to achieving optimal results and a pleasant recovery.
