I am very sorry for your experience and everything you have sufferred and continue to suffer. I too, have had the excat same experience. My almond shaped eyes were changed. The left one to a round hooded shape; the right one to a slant. The reason for this is that during the eyelid surgery, the Doctor was talking and instructing the Fellow student doctor, who was working on my right eye. I heard her say to the student "Stitch her up". She stitched me up alright, I looked like a freak, one monster hooded left eye, and one slanted closed right eye. After FIVE revisional surgeries; two by the original doctor, and three by a doctor that corrects bad blephs; they are still ugly. I am thinking of having a fat transfer into the right eye, where the student, "skinned me alive". Right now, I am trying to stop obsessing about it. For as you, know something like this can ruin your life if you let it. But, unfortunately, everyday I look in the mirro I am reminded of what I did. If you want to talk about this, and possible solutions, pleae e-mail me. Thank you.

I am very sorry for both of us. I too had beautiful eyes; But, thought I could benefit from a little skin being removed. The Ocular Plastic Surgeon who did my eyes was head of the Department.During surgery, I heard her say to the Fellow student Dr., "Stitch her up". Well, she stitched me up alright. My right eye was like a small slant. The left eye done by the so called "Top Doc", was a wide -open hood. I was maimed and told the Doctor so. She did two revisional surgeries, that were no better. Since that time three more have been done by another Dr. who corrects bad blephs. The problem is, I was skinned alive on the right eye by the student. My personality has gone from happy every day to sad. I think I look wierd and am self-concious when I am talking to people and they are looking at me. I no longer feel attractive or pretty. The doctor who did my original surgery could care less. All she was doing was giving the student a "practice lesson", and she evidently wasn't concentrating on what she was doing when she did my left eye. I know exactly how you feel, and was compelled to respond. I am thinking of having fat-grafting in my right eye. I can't believe I did this to myself. I, like you, are reminded of my terrible mistake every day I look in the mirror. I would give a million dollars to reverse this surgery. My eye shape changed from almond to a semi-hood shaped. My duaughter is upset with me because I keep having revisions; but, I want to correct it as best I can. It is a deeply saddening thing to happen to anyone.

I had a bad upper bleph. Five, yes, five revisional surgeries. One eye is still bigger than the other. The doctor did the left eye and she let a student do the right eye. I am severely depressed over the results. I went from a happy person, to a very unhappy person over this. I would recommend NOONE have upper bleph surgery. You just don't know how it will turn out. In my case, the student took too much skin out of the right eye, and my eye is much smaller than the left one. The doctor was more intersted in her student practicing on me than doing a good job. I will never get past this.
