Excess Skin After Eyelid Surgery. An upper eyelid lift reduces the excess upper eyelid skin and muscle by making a fine incision in the crease of the lid. The sagging tissue is gently removed, along with the little fat pad in the corner of the eyes near the nose. The skin is then stitched back together.
Medically necessary contact lenses usually offer the wearer greater visual acuity than eyeglasses can provide. Contact lenses may be used as an alternative to replacing the lens of the eye for some eye conditions and may be needed after some optical surgical procedures like cataract removal.
This includes but is not limited to: color or field of vision deficits, inadequate visual acuity, the use of a contact lens in one eye for distant correction and another lens in the other eye correcting for near vision, and telescopic lenses. Proper documentation is essential to obtain a medical certificate.
