Source for all rows: eyegroupms.com/dr-kyle-lewis-md

• Board certification, as the site states it: "Board Certified Oculoplastic & Eyelid Specialist."
• Professor of Ophthalmology, UMMC; the site says he remains active in teaching and training.
• Member, American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (ASOPRS).
• Site states he is "one of only a few surgeons in the state performing many advanced eyelid and orbit surgeries," and that he also performs surgical management of orbital trauma and thyroid eye disease.

Eyelid surgery work

• Upper and lower blepharoplasty. The practice's single eyelid-surgery page states blepharoplasty removes excess eyelid skin (fat can be added or removed) via a shallow incision near the top of the eyelid, typically for patients over 35; lower-lid surgery, performed after upper-lid surgery, uses an incision just below the lower lashes to remove excess fat and skin (eyelid-surgery).

The page is written generally for "our doctors" and is not attributed to Dr. Lewis by name. No dedicated ptosis-repair, brow-lift or canthoplasty page exists on the site, and no before-and-after gallery was found.

Other procedures

Eye Group is a comprehensive ophthalmology practice offering cataract surgery, LASIK, PRK, glaucoma treatment, dry eye therapy and corneal transplant (DMEK/DSAEK), among other services; four other physicians are listed (Elizabeth Mitchell, Kevin Kosek, Lee Moore, Elliott Browning).

Insurance and cost

No insurance, Medicare or price statements appear on the eyelid-surgery page.

Recovery: the page states recovery after surgery is usually an hour or two before discharge, with a follow-up appointment a day or two later to check healing; risks listed include bleeding/infection, temporary blurry vision, decreased eyelid function, discoloration, and dry or irritated eyes.
