Topspinmo,
I had only the drooping skin above the eyelid crease removed, but with this kind of surgery, I think they often tuck the muscle that lifts the eyelid, too, if needed to improve the visual field. As I understand it, Medicare will cover it if it is a vision issue.
If you are thinking about this, and if you have not already done so, it might be time to at least talk with an ophthalmologist that specializes in ocular plastic surgery or who will recommend an ophthalmologist who does.
Anyway, I wish you the best as you decide.
