Extensive Eyelid Removal and Repair

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 67966

This is a surgery to remove a larger portion of the eyelid, including the edge where the eyelashes are, usually because of a tumor or other growth, and then rebuild the eyelid so it closes and functions normally. It is used when the affected area is too large for a smaller excision and repair to be enough.
