Can my hooded eyelids be corrected to look natural and also be covered under insurance? (photo)

Asked By:PDX65 in Salt Lake City, UT

I am looking for a surgeon that will once and for all help me correct my hooded upper eyelids. I'm not sure what the criteria is for insurance to pay full-on. I think it's been starting to affect my vision, and I hope that the surgery will help with this issue, along with the benefit if being able to see my actual eye shape. I am in the Pacific NW. Thanks!!
