Does insurance cover the cost of eyelid surgery?

Unfortunately, insurance companies rarely cover the cost of eyelid surgery because they view it as a cosmetic procedure. However, there is an exception to that rule if the issue being corrected impedes your vision. Coverage of an upper eyelid surgery requires pre-approval by the insurance company. As with any surgery, if you have any further questions, book an appointment for a consultation to learn if you are a good candidate for eyelid surgery.
