Eyelid surgery work

Procedure text describes the practice's service generally, not Dr. Hayek individually.

  • Upper blepharoplasty. "Involves undergoing eyelid surgery on your upper eyelids. With upper blepharoplasty, you'll have any excess fat and skin removed" (source).
  • Lower blepharoplasty. Addresses under-eye bags and excess tissue below the lash line (same page).
  • Ptosis. "Occurs when your upper eyelid droops over your eye. Ptosis can happen to patients of any age" (same page). Also treated: dermatochalasis, entropion, ectropion and thyroid eye disease/Graves' disease.
  • Eyelid reconstruction after Mohs surgery for eyelid skin cancer (source).

The practice site has no before-and-after gallery of eyelid photos; the practice's gallery page is video-only, organized by subspecialty (cataracts, oculoplastics, LASIK, and others) without accompanying images (source).

Other procedures

BOTOX and dermal fillers (source); LASIK surgery is offered elsewhere in the practice.

Insurance and cost

The practice site has no eyelid-specific insurance, Medicare or price statements.

Medicare eyelid operations, 2022 to 2024

From CMS, Medicare Physician and Other Practitioners by Provider and Service, NPI 1952504656. Medicare pays only when the lids block vision, so these are the medical cases. Cosmetic eyelid surgery is paid by the patient and is not in this record. CMS leaves out any code billed fewer than 11 times in a year.
