Upper eyelid surgery

My eyelids are getting worse - so hooded the skin sits on my eyelashes. Eyeliner is pointless as in shadow - I sometimes wear waterline eyeliner. I'm in the south east, thinking if I would meet Nhs criteria or try to self fund. The very top of my vision there is like a slight greying which I think is my brow/lids.
Has anyone any advice either private or nhs? Before I start looking. Added complication is a medical condition and I would need to fund also pre-treatment if paying privately.

I need a specific medication administered by the clinic before any op. I don't think they can give it to me to take anywhere, otherwise I'd be looking beyond local.

@OneFrenchEgg are you aware that Botox can help somewhat with this?

Yes it didn't really when I tried it, but maybe I should look again.

I guess you don't know if you don't ask

That's true, I could always check.
I'm so excited for you and your glow up!

Is this the Turkey tag team?

I don't know what that is, sorry!

I'm going to investigate the GP / optician option first. Then look into whether private is affordable.

Yes, they’ve been here for a few days now!

What is the Turkey tag team?
Like you think I'm advertising Turkey? And tagging someone?
I've never been to Turkey.
Confused
