Medically Needed Upper Eyelid Surgery? - Shreveport, LA

I was referred by my ophthalmologist to a oculoplastic ( may be spelled wrong ) surgeon, who specializes in oculoplastic surgery & neuro-ophthalmology. My ophthalmologist stated that just doing an upper eye lift would do no good, that the muscles in my eyelids needed to be fixed. I found out that my upper eyelids are blocking my vision. This specialist is the only one in our state that does this type of surgery. My ophthalmologist says that my insurance ( medicare and blue cross) will cover this surgery. I am unable to see unable to see the surgeon until March 20th. I am worried about the visual field exam and what it involves. My eyelids, do at times appear more droopy than at other times. Some days they look fine to me. Is this sometimes normal? I am asking for all any information in reguards to the testing and any other information. Will keep you informed on how the consulation goes. Mean while any and all information would be appreciated. I have read his reviews and found only one that complained and stated she had to wait for 3 hrs. to see him and that he was very brief and rude, she did not say what he was rude about.

I will go on the 20th for my consult with the oculo plastic surgeon, that I was referred to. I am nervous and excited. Will let everyone know what he says about doing my surgery.
