It has been 19months since my surgery. Shortly after the surgery my vision began to blur. It is so blured that I need reading glasses to eat dinner. I sometimes cannot recognize my son when he is on the court playing basketball. Is there anything my surgeon can do or arrange through another doctor to correct this? I am going to see him regarding the concern I have with indention between my eye and cheek bone and thought that would be the time to mention this as well. Vision is #1 concern

Answer: WIth all due respect, your visual changes may have absolutely nothing to do with your facial surgery.
Katerina,
Be patient, you would be surprised how different it will look at two months after surgery vs. now. Given that you've had a couple of surgeries already even a small amount of residual swelling can cause the lid to look distorted. Be more patient and I would not do...
A skin graft applied to the upper eyelid is harvested from the other eyelid or from other areas of the face. It takes about a week for it to take to be successful.
There is actually nothing wrong with your lower eyelids. Please do not let these doctors talking about botox and fillers convince you otherwise. Enjoy like and try not to worry about your lower eyelids.
