Most cases of blepharoplasty are not covered by insurance. However, that is because most blepharoplasty procedures are performed for cosmetic reasons. If you suspect that you may be a good candidate for functional blepharoplasty, schedule a consultation with us. Your medical insurance company will likely have requirements that you must meet in order to qualify for coverage for at least part of your overall treatment plan. Typically, these requirements include sufficient documentation from an eye care professional. Here at Wilkinson Eye Center, we are thorough in our intake and examination for all eye problems, including excess tissue on the upper eyelids. We are familiar with cases like yours and are meticulous in our measurements and documentation related to your examination. If needed, we are happy to submit additional information to your insurance company to prove medical necessity.
