Thank you for sharing your question. In severe cases of ptosis when the vision is affected the insurance companies will cover the cost. See an experienced Oculoplastic Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and discussion of treatment options. Good luck,

Samuel Baharestani, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  As long as the ptosis causes a loss of peripheral vision, most insurance companies will cover ptosis repair.  Schedule a consultation with a board certified oculoplastic surgeon to discuss your condition.  Good luck!

Paul B. Johnson, MD · Answer

If the ptosis is blocking vision, the surgery should be covered.  An in-person evaluation by a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon can help determine your eligibility.
