Eyelid Wedge Removal for an Inward-Turning Eyelid

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 67923

This surgery corrects entropion, a condition where the eyelid turns inward and the eyelashes rub against the eye, by removing a small wedge-shaped section of the eyelid and closing the gap to reposition the lid margin outward. It is used when simpler treatments have not stopped the eyelid from turning in. The procedure realigns the eyelid so the lashes no longer irritate the surface of the eye.
