👀 That eyelid lift you’ve been putting off? Your insurance might actually cover it.
Did you know an upper blepharoplasty can sometimes be a medically necessary procedure—not just a cosmetic one?
When excess skin on the upper eyelids hangs into your field of vision, it can make everyday activities like driving, reading, or working more difficult. In appropriately selected patients, insurance may cover the procedure when there is documented visual field impairment.
✨ And yes—you can still enjoy the cosmetic benefit.
This patient underwent an upper blepharoplasty to remove excess upper-eyelid skin, open the eyes, and create a more refreshed, natural appearance.
Think your eyelids might be affecting your vision?
