Preoperative consultation on at least two separate occasions is essential to ensure a realistic expectation of the surgery. This involves your Surgeon showing you before and after photos of other patients who have undergone the surgery, giving you reading material on the surgery, and ideally talking to a patient who has had this type of surgery.
Most insurance companies and Medicare do not cover Eyelid Surgery unless upper lid skin excess affects or obscures vision. If the upper eyelid skin touches or hangs over the lash/eyelid margin, then Medicare and health insurance companies contribute to the cost of the surgery. Your Surgeon can advise you if this may be the situation for you.
In some cases Dr. Sellars may require you to have an eye examination with an eye Specialist prior to the surgery.
