With permission from your parents, ptosis can be treated on patients who are your age. For insurance to cover the procedure, you would need documentation of visual field loss due to the ptosis. This evaluation is traditionally performed by an optometrist or ophthalmologist. Repair of the ptosis is usually performed by a plastic surgeon, ENT surgeon, or occuloplastic surgeon. Cost varies depending on surgeon, facility, and geographically. Best of luck to you.
