Surgical healing
There is usually moderate swelling and bruising around the eyes after any eyelid surgery, not unlike when you get hit from a blunt trauma resulting in a "black eye". It is worst the day after surgery, then gets better everyday, lasting a total of 7-10 days. During that time, you are able to see since the eyes are not usually covered.

Post-surgical swelling after correction of eyelid sagging varies from person to person as well as depends of which surgical technique was used. I would recommend you take off a week from work or school.
