Droopy upper eyelids, baggy lower eyelids and saggy eyebrows can be corrected to brighten the face and restore a younger appearance. Excessively droopy upper eyelids which cause visual blockage may be eligible for insurance coverage. A visual field test in our office will determine the degree of visual blockage.
