Blurred vision after upper bleph. Is this normal?

July 26, 2014
Asked By:rayooc in California, MD

I had a upper blepharoplasty on July 9. I am healing fairly well but it is difficult to look upwards. My vision becomes blurred and I feel a strain on my eyeballs or eyelids. Is this normal? My doctor keeps saying everything is fine.
