Di, RE: the eyelid lift. My 80 year old dad had that done a year or so ago, as his droopy lids were hindering his sight.

In his case, it was not for vanity's sake, it was for safety in his driving and sailing activities.

Due to the surgery NOT being cosmetic, I believe Medicare covered it. I don't know whether or not my private coveraqe would do the same, but it is probably worth looking into.
