9 weeks post facelift/ blepharoplasty/ dry painful eye sensitive to light. using drops & gel at night. Will eyes heal? (photo)

You have significant issues.  It appears that you have had surgical weakening of the structures that help support and close the eyes.  You may have had a pre-existing dry eye prior to surgery, but whatever transpired has made the situation worse.  Your symptom complex appears to describe a corneal ulceration/exposure keratitis.Please see someone who is versed in treatment of the situation.  It ATL...look up William Silver.

Although common for a brief period following surgery the symptoms of dry eye and photosensitivity at 9 weeks merits further investigation and perhaps aggressive treatment and even surgery.
Photos suggest that extensive surgery has already occured, including the possibiity of canthoplasty/canthopexy and even cheek suspension through a palpebral incision.  The incidence of symptoms following such surgery is increased and merits further investigation.  Seek help from your surgeon first and if not forthcoming then get a second opinion.  Board certification in ophthamology does not necessary imply competence in caring for such problems and the patient should seek a surgeon (oculoplastic or plastic surgeon) who has extensive experience in dealing with such problems.
