Medically my eyelids were too droopy & needed raised. Insurance does not pay for extra eyelid skin removal so I paid $4,000 for just that part. I did get the brow lift with endotines. Used a Dr recommended by my optometrist. Still you never know what Dr is going to be like AFTER he gets his money. I have to go back to work in 5 days. Computer work. Do you think I will be able to do that? ? Updated on 13 Jun 2015: But look at the puckering in corner of right eye. Will that go away? Maybe he will have to snip it off? So glad you guys are here. I am totally alone in this. Updated on 13 Jun 2015: Just worried about the puckering in corner of right eye Updated on 14 Jun 2015: Still no bruising. Am I just lucky? Tomorrow back to work. My eyes might get tired doing hrs of computer work. Plus people will think I am weird. .or vain. Well I worry too much Updated on 20 Jun 2015: Looks really good. !! Only upper blepharoplasty and brow lift but NO Bruising. Not one spec. QUESTIONS: EYE feel gritty slightly swollen and my vision slightly blurry. ( Work is computer work so I must NOT make mistakes) Can I diagnose this myself as chemosis? Not wearing contacts any more. I use the contact lens fluid which is soothing. .but stings a bit. should I take antihistamines? Back to ice packs? Thanks for answers. My Doc expects me to know everything already.
