Eyelid Closure Surgery With Tissue Repositioning

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 67882

Part of the upper and lower eyelids are surgically joined together to narrow the opening between them, and supporting tissue inside the eyelid is also repositioned as part of the same procedure. This is done to protect the surface of the eye when it cannot close fully or is at risk of drying out and injury, for example after certain nerve or eyelid problems. Repositioning the supporting tissue provides added stability to the eyelid margin.
