Lump under my right eye following upper and lower Blepharoplasty, what is it? (photos)

November 30, 2015
Asked By:EyeAm in Europe

Hello, I am 5 weeks post op from an upper and lower Blepharoplasty. I am unhappy and concerned about a lump under my right eye, this lump was not there pre op and it feels like a length of ligament or vein when I touch it. It is really noticeable in all kinds of light and I am wondering what my surgeon should be suggesting to resolve? Due to meet with him next week. My upper eyelids don't seem to quite match and still seem to sit on my lids, I am not sure if that is avoidable or not? Kind Regards, G
