I am having my upper & lower lids done. Dr. is going to cut a little farther out on the side of my eyes to tighten up the skin there. A little nervous, got my ice packs, moved the things I'll need up to eye level since the doctor said bruising occurs from bending down and picking things up. I should plan to just rest the first two or so days. Updated on 25 Feb 2015: Surgery took ab hour and a half then I woke up feeling well, no pain, just some numbness in my face and swollen eyes. Got home and used the ice packs and slept a lot. I had been very nervous about the surgery and it was a relief to have iit done. Updated on 25 Feb 2015: Today was harder than the day of surgery. Swelling and red. I be washed my eyes, used the ointment, and used the ice packs. Things are a little blurry. I'm going to get a good nights sleep and see how things are tomorrow. No pain just discomfort. Updated on 25 Feb 2015: Keypad is blurry. Updated on 26 Feb 2015: Day 3 kept ice packs on every hour. Can't read anything so it's easier to rest. Dr called to check on me. I'm doing as expected. Taking my antibiotic, washing eyes, using antibiotic ointment . Now taking something for pain and looking forward to another good nights sleep. Updated on 26 Feb 2015: Couldn't see much. Updated on 27 Feb 2015: Got outside, 25 degrees and it hit my lids like a blast of refreshment. Strange. I use eye drops to be on the safe side but haven't really had dry eyes at all. Less swelling. Less blurry vision. Been getting some really good sleep and a break from all the digital devices except for these updates. Updated on 1 Mar 2015: Virtually no discomfort at all. I'm really glad I did this. I know tomorrow will not be pleasant getting the stitches out. I don't know if they will numb me but I'll share that tomorrow and hopefully some pics can be uploaded. Updated on 1 Mar 2015: Feeling great! Updated on 7 Mar 2015: I expected some pain but there was none. The stitches easily came out, doctor told me to massage the lower lids in an upward motion using baby oil and to keep upright as much as possible to aid healing. Updated on 7 Mar 2015: Swelling is pretty much over. When I don't rest, I can fell it though. Updated on 7 Mar 2015: The doctor also advised to use a warm washcloth. I meant to say that on day seven. Updated on 7 Mar 2015: Really not feeling any discomfort at all now. Updated on 7 Mar 2015: My eyes are green again lol, I started thinking about buying make up soon. I looked back at the saggy and hooded pre pics, yuk, Updated on 9 Mar 2015: Just feeling a little tightness around my eyes. Everyday shows a distinct improvement and healing, I feel. I can't wait to check the difference everyday. Updated on 24 Feb 2017: Too bad the doctor has retired. Good for him though. I'm quite happy. Updated on 24 Feb 2017:
