    Dear Wish I'd Known Better

    Thanks for the name of your opthamologist. I sure hope he can help you.

    I too have a thyroid problem - underactive. I found out about it after I had the surgury. I don't know if that had anything to do with it.

    I have been doing the eye lifts so maybe it will help mine stay in place. It is so painful when the eyelids are pulled down away from the eye. It is like torture.

    Take care and good luck.

    Dear Wish I Had Known Better,

    Thanks for the information regarding the eye drops. Will try them.

    What is the name of your new opthamologist? Sounds like he is helping you. Glad that you are not doing the graphs.

    Thes PS's should give more information about what could go wrong, because when it does, your life will go into a tailspin. It's so depressing looking in the mirror and not recognizing yourself besides the eye pain associated with dry eyes. It is such a travesty.

    I had the same problem with my lower lids. Put in the skin grafts from behind my ears, but it still didn't help. Just wanted to let you know.

    I have been living with it for years. It is painful and I also have red eyes, most of the time. When working on the computer, I tape my eyes up so that they aren't away from my eyes. It helps.

    It was the worse decision of my life. Thought I would looked refreshed, not a disfigured person. And to top it off, I paid to have it done to me.

    These PS's should be honest and let you know that you will look entirely different.

    Good luck.

    I wish I knew the solution to this bad surgery, but I haven't found one yet.

    Hi brokenhearted,

    Received an e-mail from MISLED, so she now has my address.

    I have never talked to anyone that has had this same experience with bad plastic surgery, so look forward to getting to know you guys better and how you are handling this experience.

    I am so glad that I found this site on the internet.

    Hi Vickisue,

    Thank you so much for your supportive comments. You are right, it isn't our fault.

    It is a great feeling when other people have experienced the same bad surgery so, therefore, they can truly relate to the horror of it all. I do not tell a lot of people what my eyes are all about, because it is really embarrassing. Better to say that I had a car accident or skin cancer than to admit what is really was about.

    Excellent to hear that you had revision surgery was successful making your life liveable again. You give everyone hope.
