Bloodshot Eyes After Blepharoplasty Surgery

December 23, 2008
Asked By:Brown Eyed Girl in Charlotte NC

I had upper and lower Blepharoplasty 13 days ago. I went back to work after 10 days. I work on the computer, so I took my eye drops to work. The first two days were okay, however, when I came home today, I noticed that my eyes were bloodshot. I have never had bloodshot eyes in my life. Should I be worried? I realize that the computer is going to bring more blood flow but I did not expect this. I am starting to regret this surgery. I am sure it did not help that I had my little space heater on as well. I guess I am nervous due to all the cornea damage talk.
