3rd eyelid surgery
Having a 3rd eyelid surgery is safe BUT the real question is to define the exact eyelid problem and do the CORRECT operation. See an oculoplastic surgeon.

Blepharoplasty surgery for ptosis
You need an examination by a qualified surgeon. The questions you are asking are not possible to answer without an examination and then a good diagnosis may be determined.

3rd eyelid surgery
It is absolutely impossible to answer this question without confidence without the benefit of examining you in person. Speaking just off the cuff, I would think that additional surgery could be performed if you are unhappy with your present condition. See someone listed by ASOPRS.org

Third operation for upper eyelids
It is difficult to express an opinion without photos. Even photos give only one static view and under these circumstances it is important to evaluate the eyelid in motion. Seek a surgeon with extensive experience in this area, either a board-certified plastic surgeon or a board certified oculoplastic surgeon. For plastic surgeons who specialize in aesthetic plastic surgery go to the website surgery.org.

Probably yes to further surgery
You may benefit from further eyelid surgery, but you need to be examined in person.
If you decide to explore this further, I would recommend consultation with an ASOPRS trained Oculoplastics surgeon. You can find one close to you on the ASOPRS dot org website
