As I close my eyes this tingling or " insect" crawling along my scar is there. It comes intermittently. It's so bad and annoying that I cant sleep, and missing work. I'm just scared to close my eyes, because as soon as I do it, it is there. Very bothersome.

It's normal to have residual swelling weeks to months after your eyelid surgery. Although most swelling improves over the first few weeks, residual swelling does take time to resolve. You should discuss your concerns with your surgeon as well. Good luck.
While it is always possible that your surgeon took out too much fat from the lower eyelid surgery, it is too early to tell.
Allow your eyelids to heal. Look at your before pictures and identify any asymmetries. Then, review and discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Chalazion is Greek for stone, meaning a small stone in the eyelid. It has a typical appearance, especially from the undersurface of the eyelid.An oculoplastic surgeon will be able to examine the eyelid and then treat either medically or surgically with incision and curettage.
