Scatter plot shows tooptips on hidden points

When specific points are hidden the mouse over still picks them up and shows a tooltip over a non visible point. How to eliminate this because i have a lot of points and the mouse is not fine enough to pick them all up therefore filtering is needed?

if (visibleCount > 100) {
var circles = d3.selectAll("circle");
circles.filter(function (d) {
if (d.id != id) {
return d;
}
}).style("visibility", "hidden");
}
else {
d3.selectAll("circle").style("visibility", "visible");
}
