Jake –
I know that you think that by using either an ear graft or a pallet graft, that you can count the eyelid surgery plus the ear or mouth surgeries as two operations.
You can’t double-dip this way according to latest, revised rules for counting eye surgeries and other rules of engagement. These new rules just went into effect this past January. Now, you only get to count the actual eyelid surgeries but not the graft operations in your total body count.
This rule change may influence your decision now to use donor grafts.
It’s still your choice however, just so you know.
Just thought that you might want to know of this rule change.
At least now, the rest of us have a fairer chance at catching you now with our eye operation counts, although that does to be rather unlikely.
