At present, there are not a few people with myopia in China. If they are nearsighted, they need to wear nearsighted glasses. However, some people think it is troublesome to wear glasses and want to have myopia surgery, but they don't know if medical insurance will be reimbursed. Can myopia surgery be reimbursed by medical insurance?

Can myopia surgery be reimbursed by medical insurance?

Myopia surgery cannot enjoy medical insurance reimbursement, and medical insurance stipulates that all kinds of cosmetic surgery, orthopedic surgery, physical defects and congenital diseases are not covered by national social security reimbursement. Such as: single eyelid cutting, strabismus, amblyopia, surgical treatment of myopia, artificial eye implantation, optometry and glasses.

Even commercial medical insurance cannot reimburse myopia surgery, because myopia surgery is strictly plastic surgery, and commercial medical insurance usually regards it as the exemption scope of plastic surgery.

Although myopia surgery helps to improve vision, it is not suitable for everyone. For example, minors with unstable vision, patients with eye diseases, patients with systemic diseases, and women during pregnancy and lactation are not suitable for myopia surgery.

That's all. I hope it helps you.
