protruding eyes

Hi, i am a 29 year old female i don't have graves disease but i was born with protruding eyes i want to have orbital decompression surgery done. I have appointment to meet with a oculoplastic surgeon in my area.I hope he gives me good news and tell me that i can have the orbital decompression surgery.How much does this surgery cost or does insurance cover this surgery.

I doubt that any reputable eye surgeon would consider orbital decompression surgery on you and if he/she did I doubt that your insurance would pay since you are essentially asking for cosmetic surgery.  

You should probably reconsider and drop the entire idea.
