Am I at risk of becoming blind from my rhinoplasty and septoplasty procedures?

Asked By:grantreardon

I am having my broken nose fixed. I have tried straightening my septom on my own a couple of times and i remember it hurt my eyes and made them water, also I am worried about how much the operation will affect my eyes given that two black eyes occur following it? I really do not want to become blind
